Beautiful little lake, got really sunburnt :) Caught 4-5 little smallmouths on senkos and curly tail worms - it was still really fun - and the lake is so nice and peaceful.

Fished joy again. Caught 3 average joy lake size bass. Those of you who say you catch 4-8lbs. bass out of here need to re-check their scales. Good lake consistent lake, however.
