Water was very low. Ramp would be inaccessible for many boats as the water is probably 3' below the end of the ramp currently. Despite intense submerged vegetation, the water was very clear. You can probably see 10' down, but this also allowed vegetation to grow very tall as well. Hoped to throw some frogs but the layout was ideal for such because the weeds created a barrier that ranged 5' - 20' from the area; so it was better throwing at/along the weedlines. Going with natural colors on the bladed jig provided some success. The weedlines around beach area were filled with medium pikes. Didn't find much on the west end of the lake as it was very shallow and full of vegetation up to the surface. There was a dropoff point filled with active bluegill that I found some success throwing suspending hardbaits such as the Rapala Shadow Rap Deep jerkbait. A handful of bass and pikes coming up from 10' - 15' to hit it!
