rough is one of my favorite lakes to fish my biggest came from there wich was a 5 pounder in the summer at night but have cought alot of three and 4 pounders out of there in the winter. it seems like you get more big bass in the winter then any other time. my buddy has cought a 7.3 pounder 2 years ago and a 6.7 pounder 2 weeks ago both in the winter. i would give it a shot if i was you.
