Hey Mike,

You need the fishing license and a daily permit $8 and yak launch $2.

Since they are stocked fish, no C&R is allowed. Best way to get around that is to use a barbless hook and amazingly they always seem to fall off right at the yak.

Or, you can easily find someone to take the fish off your hands.

You can probably find some bass if you dropshot deep, 25-40'. I was going after the low hanging fruit.

I'd like to try a little of everything as i have not done mush freshwater fishing in my life.

10$ isnt bad for some fun.
another question- Can i bring a cooler of beer on the yak?

Hell yeah! City lakes are mellow. Have your bait tank filled up with ice and brews. Or do it white trash style and have it hanging over the side on a leash.

If you have some mac or bonito bring that and you can get some nice cats out of that lake.

I've got a about....zero excuses to not get out there, I mean, the lake is seriously 2 miles from my house and 1/2 mile from my work. Maybe next week...

Thanks for the report!
