Grandson Sam and I fished the white bass tourney there today. We had great fun but didn't place. I had 5 fish that weighed 9.22 lbs, but I believe the winner had a total of 9.86 lbs. Sam and I fished early in the shallows near the dam expecting fish to school. They did but for a short while only. Then we began working deep structures with 24 to 26 fow at drop-offs working best. My biggest fish was 17 inches long and I believe it weighed in at 2.2 lbs. Tournament big fish I think was 2.5 lbs. I had ten fish 16 inches or better. All together Sam and I caught 64: 51 whites, 3 hybrids, 2 drum, 7 keeper yellow bass including one 13 inches long, and a cat. The fried fish w/ffries, hush puppies, baked beans and cold slaw lunch after weigh-in was terrific. Weather was great and it all made for a great day outdoors.
