Decided to take my daughter to this lake because it yielded a great day the time I fished it.  The lake was a foot or two lower this trip and the algae containing vegetation ringed the shoreline and was also sporadically floating throughout different portions of the lake. The buzzbait bite early on provided some nice fish, but it didn’t duplicate the previous trip.  Didn’t even have a strike on a popper.  My daughter resorted to using a small crankbait which caught most of the fish.  She enjoyed the trip especially since she caught a 4’8” bass on a buzz bait, but it wasn’t close to the experience I was expecting.
