i have seen people haul them home too eat- bluegill, catfish and bass. but for myself i wouldnt do it. i grew up right down the street from there and i have seen that lake go through some bad times. IMO i think that all the fertalizers and sprays the golf course uses would run off into the lake. i have heard it is cleaner now than it has been in the last 20 years or better so it might be ok.
