The aquatic vegetation is really coming in, creating some excellent fishing opportunities. Frogs, flukes, jigs, etc, all produced for fish in the grass. There is also a lot of bass in the 20' to to' 30' depth. Finesse techniques  got the job done in the deeper water. There were some nice bluegill catches made as well, most of these falling for drop shotted nightcrawlers, red worms, and mealworms. As usual with the panfish, locations were closely guarded. Catfish went unreported to the concession last week.
