I have fished it a few times this year for crappie.....no luck, but I Think there is probably some decent fishing there. its just a matter of spending time and finding those sweet spots.
Have not done any bass fishing there, but have caught a few small one fishing for crappies.
I'm not to sure if the water is deep enough to hold crappie in the summer time north of the bridge. Hopefully someone will chime in with some helpfull info.
I like BS lake and also Longview is a really nice sized lake here in town.
Sorry not much help.
