Lipless crankbaits preferred alot this time of year, he would also use a Chompers Watermelon or Pumpkinseed. There are quite a few White Bass in the lake also, so using the crankbait you might get a lot of strikes from them, (might want to bring your cooler for them). Fish the south end of the lake along the Boy/Girl Scout campground, he said there is a drop off along there that goes from 4 to 12 foot in a heart beat. The lake is also a catfish haven good channelsl/flathead and blue. Can’t tell you about the crappie bite yet but I am sure they will be coming on quick, and there are saugar in the lake as well. West of the power plant on Stevenson Dr. is Big Red’s Bait Shop, might want to stop there and get up to date info about what is biting and on what. There are plenty of restaurants and gas stations out by the power plant, but if you have never tried a horseshoe sandwich or even a good sit down meal Google D’Arcy’s Pint. It’s not that really that far from the lake and close to the interstate 72 and just down the road from Scheels and Gander Mountain is even close. Boat trouble-East Side Marine.
