Fished Hardy Lake for the first time in several years, hit it twicw last week and I must say that the yellow bass are over abundant.
We livescoped and found several brushpiles with 100's of return. Maybe 1 or 2 crappie out of all teh retuns, most were yellow bass 6" to 9" long. Burned thru 5 dozen minnows pretty quickly! If the yellow bass were 1lb or bigger that would be one heck of a fight on a 14' crappie pole!

Hardy is full of small fish. for sure!
