I thought Fairfield was really bad after the fish kills and no restocking of it since 2010 because of the kills. A lot of people think that, it's simply not true. The lake is full of 2 and 3lb bass. It was bad for a year or so but it's full of fish now.

You ready for this?
We caught a few fish each. All were almost clones of each other. Neither of us could weigh in anything because all of our catches were under the 18" minimum. They we're all 15" or so. We stayed in very close sight of each other all day. We both tied for dead last with a LOT of other guys. Haha. We figured the tourney would keep us honest and we both decided, before, that they couldn't be 20 dinks that weighed 10'pounds. We decided on a five fish limit and all fish had to be legal. We both missed a BUNCH of fish. And we both lost a bunch in the reeds.
We both couldn't believe how small the lake fished. As always, a few guys were finding fish of better size. We couldn't find them. I even took my boat into the reeds. To the back side of them nothing but small fish.
If anyone ever goes to Fairfield. Take a flipping stick loaded with 65lb braid. A few weedless baits, ether jigs or punch rigs. And that is it. Only need one rod. And there literally is only one pattern. At least that either of us could get going.
Eat. Sleep. Fish.
