in the past 4 years i have been fish it the fish have gotten better 4 years ago you could catch pleanty of 6 in bass ..... this year and last i have noticed alot more slots being caught ...... its still a fun top water lake as long and they leave the grass alone

Don't tell them there is grass in it. You know were not allowed to have any grass in our small lakes, you have done it now, I can hear the wheel turning already. So long grass.

You're right with the grass comment. When "they" began trying to control the grass in Beaver Lake in the 90s(by spraying and with the newly implemented grass carp), it was the end of a great lake. When weed control talk begins, you can almost hear a distant choking sound.

the last couple of years they start spraying in july and the lake usually shuts down.....still catch a few but seems they move out alot deeper

Seems like I remembered the lake being turned to a slot lake in the late 90s but could definitely be wrong about that.
