Hardy Lake.....

[Wade2131]

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!

That’s exactly why I call it Lake Hardly!!
Crappie are paper thin and overrun with those yellow bass.
You can catch some eater bluegill from time to time.

Nothing like it used to.
Striper population has eaten about everything in the lake.
I don’t waste my time there anymore.
