Gear for the fish stocked here

Baits: small minnows, worms, waxworms and other insect larvae
Lures: small jigs, small jigging spoons tipped with a waxworm, small spinners
Largemouth Bass
Rod: A 6.5 to 7 foot medium action spinning rod is an easy start. Bass rods run 6 to 8 feet, with 7 to 7.5 feet a good all-round length.
Line: 8 to 10 lb mono on spinning gear. For heavy cover, braid of 15 lb or more. Fluorocarbon is a good all-round baitcasting line.
Baits: nightcrawlers, minnows
Lures: soft plastic worms, spinnerbaits, crankbaits
