My friend and I fished the East lake from 12:30 til 4:30 on Saturday, May 18. Weather condition….90 degrees but with a steady breeze. Lake level full with what looks like pasture grass around the banks and spread intermittenly throughout lake. Caught and released 27 bass and 2 monster black crappie. Caught the crappie on a Rattletrap. Caught a couple of bass on the trap but the remainder on Texas rigged and wacky rigged Senkos. All fish healthy and black. Largest fish in the 2-3 pound range and caught a dozen in that range. Would like to fish the West lake but can’t get off the East lake. Don’t leave fish to look for fish….....great day.

Steve,
What is that grass in the lake?

That’s what I thought also, Phillip. Can’t believe the lake was down that far with 3-4 ft tall grasses growing out in what’s now 6-8 ft. of water.
