got in Line @ 6:30am and i was the 10th one in line, pretty busy for a friday morning. Fished the Top lake, threw in some powerbait in for a while for nothing, started seeing people pull in a few fish using jiggs, so I threw on a power worm and Wham!. . . . . let the fishing began.
I pulled out this 8.5 pounder jigging a powerworm, took about 10mins on 2lb test! when i finally land this trout, my hook broke in half. My PB out of this lake. land a few after that but no were near the first one.
I didnt see anyone have any luck on the powerbait, most people were jigging.
only seen a hand full of people pulling in fish. most fish were from 3-6lb range.
I think that they stock more quality fish than anything. it was a nice day 57-63 degrees thought out the day. Stood the whole day and it was empty by 3pm, great evening bite there!

All in all it was a great day for fishing, this lake has heavy pressure the day after a stock and doesnt give the weekend guys to much of a fighting chance.

I had heard the big fish were biting in the plaid area of the lake. I guess your photo proves that to be true.
