Cove Lake...Lexington's best kept secret!!!

I used to live on Squires and I would go by that mud puddle all the time, and I'm going to be the one to call B.S. There might be a carp or two in there during high water like you all have said, and I would have to buy a coat and gloves to believe there are any bass in that puddle becuase hell would freeze over before that happened!

Interesting comments about Jacobson Park. I've noticed that it has a ramp. Has anyone fished it from a boat before and are you allowed to put in with an outboard, so long as you only use the trolling motor?

Jacobson Park can be accessed with a small boat or canoe. It's trolling motor only, I think...??? I've used a trolling motor out there before and have never been questioned but I've talked to people who have been questioned. Get out there during the prespawn and pitch a light jig. There have been some big bass caught in that lake. A shallow running crankbait or Rat L Trap catches fish out there as well.

It's been several years since I've fished Jacobson but this is how I use to catch a few out there... Good luck!

It's not bad in the fall either. We always used a trolling motor as well with no problems. All of our fish came from the timber on the golf course side.
