SWEET!! Nice fish and a new PB. Would you be kind enough to tell what baits you used? I am headed out there tomorrow with the wife and dog (dog has been out fishing me lately so I wont let him read this). My first time going to choke and i see on google earth 4 launch ramps (is that right?) are they all useable? I understand that the water is low but its all new to me and I need some bites to put that dog in his place.

Depends on where you want to fish and where your staying. If your going to fish by the dam area like Whata or stay in Three Rivers then launch at South Shore. The best place to launch is Callighan park, more docks to tie up to. There is also Mason point and 99 ramp, those are both river channels. Being the first time I'd avoid those 2. Bewarned though, if your scared of stick & stumps you best stay down by the dam area.

The lake was 22' low back in 2001. Heck for years I didn't even know there was a creek under the 99 bridge back in Opossum. It was actually the best fishing I ever had there, but there used to be grass back then too.
