It's an awesome lake for big bass in the 4-7 range but it doesn't compare to Eastern mountain lakes for true trophy bass. 7s are common on clear deep Eastern lakes and fish in the 8-9 are caught all the time. Not saying anything negative about the lake but the bass in most of the state don't get as big as they do in clear deep lakes with trout. But for numbers of bass and consistent action your better off on lakes like Kincaid or lakes West of I-75 in general.
