Well Johnny, you must be a picky fisherman, I am a female and grew up a tomboy, this lake was very good fishing for me and my children, yes there is a lot of LILY PADS, not weeds, don't drink and fish and you wont fall in, lol. Anyway, My 2 sons caught lots of perch here at this lake, we pulled up as a trolling boat just was loading up and showed us they caught catfish out of this lake, the guy next to us caught some perch also, the guy in a boat in the water about 100 feet or so from shore kept catching fish like crazy and some were nice size. So this lake is hard for bunches of people and better to have a trolling boat, but we did catch fish and we also watched others catch fish.
Thanks
