Action has been slow. This is a small shallow lake that gets some heavy pressure. Try fishing the main dock or from the shoreline along the dam. Carp action has been slow. Bluegill action should be good using worms fished at about two feet under a bobber with a single split shot fixed at about 6-inches above the hook.
