Lakeguide (Matt) went earlier this year and slayed the LMBs and his buddy caught one Walleye.
That stocking report isn't at all what I thought it would be.

It's a really good lake. Haven't been in a few weeks but it lays out to be an awesome fall and winter lake.

Drop shot (good lake for learning electronics), football jig, t-rigged creature baits in the tree lines. It's a clear lake, but if you decide to go flip the tree tops bring out the heavy line. This one about buried me and he had a pretty fresh 5/0 owner and a few inches of line stuck in his jaw someone else lost. They thought they had the lake record I'm sure.

Looks Like $33.00 for anyone living outside Summervell county and you can't even start the gasoline outboard to get off the trailer.
Makes for a nice quite run.. (crawl) up the lake!
