I fished it 6 or 7 times last year. Caught the one big one on a 9 inch MS Slammer. every other fish I caught on black and red 5/8 and 1/2oz jigs. I would go with the black jigs, trout plugs, and maybe some 10 inch red shad power worms. I think you could spoon some fish out of there too if you knew some good deep water spots. There are a lot of small silvery bait fish in the lake.
