Found a little spot on the lake that has a playground in the park about 30yds from the bank where you fish. Perfect for fishing with little ones who might need a break to hit up the swings and not end the day. Caught the largest bass I have ever caught and met another very nice angler. All in all, a place worth dropping a line or two; you won’t be disappointed.
