    If you're fishing Lochloosa fish the North end across towards Little Lochloosa and spider rig. Use a number 5 split shot about 8 inches up the line with a blue/chartreuse curly tail and a 1/32 oz. jighead. Put out about 8-10 foot of line and do between .8 and 1 mph. Can't go wrong. I fished that lake for years with a buddy of mine and there are very few times we didn't limit, once we figured it out. Good luck, welcome, and tight lines to ya!

    The finest gift you can give to any fisherman is to put a good fish back, and who knows if the fish that you caught isn't someone else's gift to you?"

    you should try Newnans as well. Good fishing there. you can troll the deeper water on the north end or try the lilly pads.
