    Just depends on how many they stock.
    They stock the lake with the tanks of fish into nets.

    However, They have to scoop the fish out of the nets and release them into the rest of the lake.

    I been there when it was dark and saw the guy on on a boat open a hatch and scoop out two
    scoops of fish for the whole lake and the go on this merry way. or like 20 fish.

    That is why you see cars and cars all around the lake and No one is catching if they
    caught a few.

    It just depends on how they feel. There are some good weekends in the beginning
    but after that they slow down.

    It is kinda like the Lotto and the scratchers the first few weeks the scratcher is good
    but after that is very very slow.

    Kinda of sucker people in and then turn it off on them.

    Best of luck - I will fish there but kinda a cringe when I see cars and cars with
    not one person catching the whole day.

    I have heard rumors that they stock into nets how TRUE is this do they really stock into nets or is that just a folk tale, interested to know.

    It was a common practice they used to do a lot. Not so anymore, now they are pretty honest on their stocking videos when they do do it. (most of the time it's when they have a tournament)

    I know this used to be a common practice of theirs... However, I was under the imression that they no longer use the nets. SO Sneaky and dishonest for them to do it in the first place. This is why I haven't fished there in 12 years. I don't trust em...
