No I use a shad rap sr5. the small fish love it. If you want big fish take the biggest minnows you can buy. Print a toppo map of the lake. I am sure you will see 5 or 6 great spots to just anchor and get the big ones. I saw one guy anchored 30 feet from the ramp catching some 3 to 5 pounders. You can only keep one over 20 inches. They know how to grow bigens.
If you like to worm fish use a 10 inch worm.

I have heard of a good lake just across the state line but don't know the name or location other than Wing Al. Any help will be appreciated.

jmac Brook hines is in Wing and just acrossed the state line. Do you know how to get to Hurricane lake? if so instead of turning off of the Hwy just keep trucking north. You will cross the state line and there will be a sign on the right showing you where to turn down a dirt road,follow the road until it splits,take the left at the split and go about 1/4 mile. There will be a paved road on the right. Take that paved road and BINGO! your in for some good fishing.

By far and away my favorite place to fish until may or june when it becomes a hot bathtub.

Heading up there in the morning for the first time. Hopefully the weather holds off and we catch a mess of fish.

Can you run a gas motor on the lake or do you have to run a trolling motor? How much does it cost for the Al. fishin lisc and can you get it there at the lake if needed?

bassn8ed

Trolling motor only. Out of state license is about $67.00. They will help you buy one by phone but I would suggest to buy it on line. You can print it right away. I am always legal but have never had my license checked. $3. launch fee and $3 permit. they also rent complete boat packages for about $16..
