The bit has been bad. Pretty slow but I’ve been able to pick up at few here and there with either 3/8 chatter bait or a wacky rig set up.

(6/6/2020) We had a really good morning on the lake. Got the kayaks on at about 7am and fished until noon. We caught 12 fish (10 bass, 2 pike) and the most of them were on a chatterbait. I did catch one on a swimjig and another on a Texas rigged beaver. It was really fun. Very enjoyable lake to kayak fish on since there is a lake wide speed limit of 8mph.

Lily Pads
The lily pads hold big fish in them. Look for the smaller sized lilypads patches. Make sure the splash of your cast is not loud so you don’t spook some of the bigger bass buried in there
