• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. A parking area is marked roughly half a mile out. Toilets are half a mile away, which matters on a long session. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems.
