Bass fishing has been tough there as long as I can remember. Dated a girl while at LSU back in mid-70's. Family lived on lake and it was a great place to hang out.

Her Dad and I would trailer the bass boat to Concordia, he didn't even put it in water on St John

The pontoon stayed at the dock and the cruising boat was on the lift.

Concordia back in the day was great

We tried bass fishing for the first day and a half with little success between 12 people. Set yoyos on the dock and caught some catfish and really nice sacalait.

It got really windy but honestly it wasn't that bad as far as driving the boat goes, working the trolling motor on the other hand...

Spent about 6 hours between 2 nights chasing hybrid striper. Ended up with 1 stripe, 1 bass, and a goo. Looking back we should have started before 12 each night.

Again, not upset at all. I had a great time and it was probably the prettiest lake I've ever been on, but I wouldn't go back with the bass boat. Would have been awesome to have a party barge to run around the lake on.
