Hit the water at 6:45am. Fished till around10 am. Water temps 71-73. Pea soup green as usual. Light rain on and off. Picked up two largies on the rocky point. Both fish around 1-1/2 lbs. Worked my way across to the big tube....shallow and rocky
nothin doin there. Motored up to the rock pile buoys. 2 boats there. Switched to a black buzz bait. First cast...serious blow up...missed the hook up. Stayed for a half hour ....nothin. Cruised over to the back cove by the no wake bouys. 2 more largies one of them close to 3 lbs. Got all my bass on a Yamamoto flippin hog texas rigged.
Threw the black buzz bait again. PIKE..PIKE...PIKE. Caught 3 of those things all about the same size ......28" guessing 3-4 lbs. Would have taken pictures.....camera didnt fair so well in the rain....damn.

Does anybody know if the DEP is issuing permits for bass tournaments there yet? or is that not ever going to happen?

Or do I need to call Bill Forman and find out for myself?

Gary, how would the DEP issue permits for a lake they have no legal access to? I mean few people are still using the launch but giving the circumstances they would not be exempt from getting ticketed and fined if somebody from the town wanted to be a dick about it.
