My childhood lake. Don't go there much now but look up the Honey hole trip there last winter. West from the bridge is a large open area of grass. Thats where I would start. Expect to catch a Pickerel a pike looking fish with teeth. The upper half of the lake is clear but the lower half is full of stumps be careful.

Water is very clear.....downsize your line and terminal tackle.....fish edges of grasslines on points.... Or pads on bank.....it's not the same as it was when I was a kid so that's all I got from a tournament earlier this year

I can't seem to unlock it this year out there. Last year I tore them up on most trips at least in terms of numbers. Good frog bite etc. This year its been maybe 2-4 fish a trip if that. Have blanked twice out there so far this year. Have not had a frog bite at all. Gonna keep going but I am struggling out there.
