    [QUOTE=Rees Guide;3734081]Millionaires point

    It's the name I gave the point in the campground on the west side of lake, think you may have to be camping there to fish it. The reason for the name was that the lake manager at the time and I would walk in to that point, this was before the campground, and fish for bass there, lots there at the time, new lake. About 1/2 the casts would catch a bass and if no fish you would likely hang up and loss you're rig. I said one time you have to be a millionaire to fish here and the name stuck. The creek makes a sharp turn there pointing North and there are 2 big stumps on the point that have had the dirt washed away from the roots, deep. Sometimes you can catch a lot of crappie there and other times none which is pretty normal.
