I am hoping the increased water level, increased brush and the stocking of more striper can get the lake back to the quality striper lake i fell in love with.
I hope so to but I say pressure keeps this from happening. Just way to many folks day after day, week after week, month after month year after year keeping every 2 that are legal. Back in the day the pressure was not even close to what it is now.
What is there about 100 guides on Cumberland now.......
I'll get slammed for that comment but that's my opinion...
