It's an extremely bipolar lake. But there are some nice fish in there. I rarely have a mediocre day over there. It's usually either feast or famine. You could either flip to the trees with jigs or weedless plastics, toss frogs on top the grass, or run spinnerbaits along grass lines and anywhere else you can get away with it. I always leave baits with treble hooks at home.

It's my go-to winter fishing spot. Mainly because the grass dies back a good bit and it's easier to fish. I'll usually throw buzzbaits on top of the grass and weightless senkos up against the trees. Usually by late summer the grass is all the way out to the middle of the lake. But it'll still be fishable, just more difficult.

I may try to run out there this week if work allows.

The water is pretty clean in there. Sometimes trying some finesse is a good idea. If you scratch don't get discouraged. That's not uncommon.

Went to half moon this afternoon. Caught a few bream. Zero bass bites. Water was stained, a little higher than usual according to a local i spoke to there.
