Never heard of it? Most haven't. My wife and I love this lake as it's so quiet, especially being surrounded completely by state forest. I had a lot of success using wacky for largemouth in the late afternoon shadows, and drop-shot for smallmouth on the drop-offs. A 6" X-Zone stick lamintate with pink and green pumpkin was the trick, and the only color they'd regularly take. I use smaller #2 hooks and the only time I miss a set is when the plastic wraps itself around the hook.

I actually use a standard pad crasher in the "dart" color. There are a lot of 12 to 15 inch bass but I did catch one over 4 lbs!

1 good smallmouth off shore, otherwise one 3 lb largemouth still wading through small ones (12 to 15 inchers) but a really nice lake!
