I used to fish BS lake every weekend, until they raised the rates. Alot of pleasure boats. Fishing is ok, some bluegill in the rocky cove on the west side of the lake. Crappie are in the trees, I have a 18.25 incher on the wall from BS lake. Bass and crappie in the tree lines on the south side of the lake, under the bridge and to the right. Never fished Longview. Jacomo has some nice crappie, but the boat must have a 25 hp or less to get on. Another reason I don't get Jackson County lake pass.
