    Most people know it as Bischoff Reservoir. I know this past Saturday there was a bass tourney at Brookville and the winner had about 9 lbs. Heard the lake was muddy and only 43 degrees. Only 1 limit caught and not many fish caught period. As for Bischoff I have no idea but id say its at least a few degrees warmer and is probably the color of chocolate milk. In my opinion that lake is nowhere near what it was in the past. I think they are ruining it by building the expensive houses and dredging the cover out of the coves so the rich people have a nicer view. Just my opinion tho.

    Bishoff's was a great lake years ago for crappie. But for bass I have seen some 4 and 5 pounders come out of there in the past 3 years. I grew up on that lake and know it well. But on the other hand there are alot of tournaments there and the fishing pressure is heavy. with a large population of 12in gizzard shad available to feed on the bass are getting bigger. Untill the water level is stabill they really won't turn on till mid April. Yes I remember when there were only two houses on the entire lake. I don't like the build up either. Instead I wish they would make the ramp nicer and make the parking lot bigger.
