we were there sat and sun and we caught several bass and one was definently a male and looked as if he was gaurding a nest. his tail was raw and he had some cuts and scars around his mouth. the bite for the lm only lasted until around ten in the morning. after that we fished for bluegills with wax worms and caught aruond twenty or so. we left around 1:30 and the gills were still biteing. so if the bass wont cooperate the gills should keep the young ones busy.
