That lake sucks. You will figure that out Today was the first time I ever saw the lake. It kicked my butt!! 9:00am-5:20pm. 1 bite. I think it's one of the most underutilized large tournament lakes in the state. Its a feast or famine lake for sure. You get around them though and its Katy bar the door. If you don't get around them, well... it has an ample population of hybrids that you can waste your day on. Facilities and lodging situation sucks sucks sucks.

I'm not complaining at all even though Saturday was less than a great day. It's only 30min from our lake house so not complaining about lodging and the only tournament I ever fished out there I weighed in almost 20lbs so I know it has good fish just have to find them and stay off the stumps

New plan follow hollingshead Brad if your going to be there next thurs or Friday I'll show you the run all the way to TXI or Patterson up the Richland arm or almost to the end up into chambers or the run up into the back of cedar, that one is the hardest. I'm sure the sizmac lanes have water over them so you can't see the lanes behind the island.

Hell of a lake though... or can be if you get around em'.

The very upper end is good and I used to run all the way up there regularly.
Patterson Lake, Little Pin Oak and the cement plant are above the railroad bridge and all have had good numbers of fish in them. With the lake up the last couple of years its a definite possibility. This time of year most of the tank dams are not the place to be. Shallow for the most part right now.

Go look at the stocking records. Yes it will take close to 30 t win the ttt. 75 % of the rest of the field will feel the suck factor. They just don't stock the old girl much.

With the lake up and cover all over the shoreline, 200-300 boats, mid March, 17lbs won't come close IMO. Just got to be fishing the right cover.

I'm sure the sizmac lanes have water over them so you can't see the lanes behind the island. I wasn't planning on going next week, but if your willing to show me the run I will change my plans and can come down there next Friday. Will be going this Friday so I'm focus on other areas of the lake this week.

I really figured 25-27 to win and 17-18 to cash a check with the level of competition in this field plus 250 teams I bet 30 teams will find them out there.
