Assuming there is still a healthy population of hybrids there, use bass gear. I know more than one person who has had rods either snapped or snatched clean out of the boat. it would be interesting that is for sure.:D
That lake is not big enough for pulling cranks. Lake lice is too plentiful.
I have tried it a couple of times and only caught a few small ones. I would not dare try it on the weekend. :eek: Unless you go real early and leave when the fleas show up.
Kinda what I was thinkn on the size of the lake. Went with Hammer one time. Didn't take very long to run the lake. Just wondering if very many people have tried it.
When the lake roaches start coming out of the woodwork, just switch from the cranks to 1oz spinnerbaits and see how many you can hit.:DQuote:

Nothing wrong with that. I used to be one of those pleasure boaters back in my younger years too. Now I strickly fish but the lake's for everybody. Whatever it takes to enjoy yourself...I say!;):)Quote:

Hammer Head....I'm yanking tubes June through August, but occasionally, I still take an early Monday to try to boat a few;)
The folks on the PWC are the ones I always seem to have a problem with. Had one buzz us once and cut real hard trying to throw water in the boat. Next pass, I zinged that big spinnerbait at his head and he didnt come back.
