Some of them in boats! (Mind you, this was a week-day evening)
I assumed after the spring trout stocking that the fishing was probably pretty weak there and never returned.
I guess the state is stocking Channel Catfish in there to maintain the fishing through out the year. Good for them.

It took me 10 years to finally give it a try, i put my canoe in early in the spring, and beat up on some decent crappies, a few small bass, and even a channel, all on inline spinners, but when i went back in the summer, it was like you said, weedy and muddy, the other day i was just running early for work, so i grabbed the ultra lite out of the trunk, turned over a few rocks for worms, and got that one channel, so yesterday i gave myself about 2 hours, to see if it was just a fluke...i guess not. Plan on taking some kids there soon for that type of action.
