Hi, I have only fished the east/south area. Been fishing there since the 70s. I have had the best luck with largemouth/smallmouth close to shore with vegetation under tree shade. Both simple spinners and surface plugs will work depending on the conditions. But I have also caught them around rock ledges- when they are hungry they will go after lots lures at different times though more active at dusk. The lake is warming earlier in the last few years & may affect your plans. Enjoy- it is a wonderful lake!

I caught a couple of pretty largemouth over 12" (forgot to grab my scale!) with simple spinners. One during that afternoon with wind gusts on the lake over 20 MPH! Hope to get back up before fall.

Bob, I hope you have a great day Monday! I have fished there every summer for over 50 years. Most successful with surface plugs for largemouth at dusk in the southern part of the lake.

This lake is just a few miles west of Augusta. It is the only place I fish in the summer. Does anyone else fish there? What are your recent experiences? Thanks Elizabeth
