Went over and fished Hawthorne last week. Caught about 75 crappie but all of them between 6-9". The action was good but the size was questionable. All fish caught on tubes/minnows and pink was best color. Would be a great place to take a child fishing. Tried a little bass fishing too but got blanked throwing texas rigged worms in the trees and crankbaits along the dam.

Going to try Belva Deer this week. Has anyone been to this lake? I have never been there before but hearing good things about it.
