Good info...never targeted trout out of there but I've seen some nice ones pulled out.

Definetly a respectable place to fish. My buddy pulled his personal best largemouth out of there over the summer...19" I believe.

Try fishing the North end right before the island in the middle--saw some nice ones pulled out of there by a guy using a small yellow spinner last year.

I saw the same thing and those fish looked extra large/jumbo fish bigger than the breeders the state put in normally
