Went last weekend. Fishing was alright, lots of panfish caught with some bass mixed in, nothing picture worthy though. Wanted to cast lures but Milfoy was real bad. Especially closer to the middle. What a beautiful lake though, the sunset over the mountains was definitely worth bringing the canoe just for that.
