  • Stocking: The lake was stocked with 1,500 pounds the week of November 29th. The next stocking will be 2,000 pounds the week of December 13th bringing the total up to 5,500 pounds so far this season. Ten percent of the stock is 3+ pounds. For a complete stocking schedule, click HERE.
  • What's the catch? A little bit of everything this weekend. The catfish seem to be more active. Limits of 3-6 pounds each were pulled out of Hermit Cove and Cactus Patch on inflated nightcrawlers. Sunfish and bass were biting off of the t-dock. And the trout as predicted were deeper, but still in the top half of the water column. Try casting about 15-20 feet from shore for trout. Mini jigs and rainbow powerbait were the winners as far as trout bait. Don't forget to send us pics of your catch! You can tag us @lakejennings on social media or email them to [email protected].
