i was bass fishing there about fifteen years ago and a local told me they were catching these speckle gills up to two pounds so i had to give it a try. if the spawn is over fish in the lilly pads on the bottom and hang on. biggest gills have ever seen. only problem is it's a long drive from where i live and back then i had a 18 1/2 bass boat and with the way the lake waves get i wrote this lake off my list. it is a awsome lake for bigger boats.
