I've fished this lake many, many times. There are a bunch of bass up to 12" in it. In at least 10 trips, I've probably only caught one or two keepers (15" at Shelby). My biggest keeper was a little over 2lbs. I've heard tales and seen one pic (the previous link) of nice bass caught out of there, but I haven't caught 'em. The most productive pattern is green plastics pitched next to wood.

I haven't been out there in a number of weeks because the lake gets a bunch of string algae floating on the surface making it hard to fish in the summer. Also, the lake has tons of floating and submerged wood. I broke a shear pin once and never saw the submerged stump. It's just a 5hp motor, so I certainly wasn't going fast!
