Fished this site for a second time this morning with my 8 year old grandson.  Slow for the first hour then got about 15 bites in the next hour.  He landed 7, all in the 15” to 17” range.  We had a great time.

Steve,

The water level appears to be about 2 ft below full, but that was not really any problem.  We fished from the bank and weren't challenged by the water level.  The vegetation was fine.  We started with some flukes and my grandson got tangled often so we switched to top water lures and did much better.  It isn't overgrown, he was just dragging through it.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thank you. The vegetation can get very thick during the summer. Sounds OK for now
