Whats the fishing been like have,nt fished there for a few years

THE LAST FEW WEEKENDS HAVE GOTTEN A LITTLE BIT SLOWER. BUT LUCKILY I HAVE NOT YET BEEN SKUNKED OUT THERE. IF YOUR GOING TO FISH THAT TOURNAMENT I’LL LET YOU KNOW THAT THE DEAPER YOU FISH IN THAT LAKE THE BETTER. BECAUSE IT ONLY GETS UP TO MAYBE 6 1/2 FEET OF WATER TOPS. BUT AS FOR OVER ALL FISHING IT HASN’T BEEN TO BAD. SOME PEOPLE I TALK TO OUT THERE CATCH LOTS OF CRAPPIES AND OTHERS CAN’T CATCH ANYTHING SO ITS REALLY A HIT AND MISS DEAL.
