I am a crappie fisherman and started fishing Rend last fall some and a lot this year mostly the stumps on north end of lake. We mostly fish a jig tipped with a minnow. Just can't believe we have never caught a largemouth of any size! Is Rend that poor of a bass lake? Would think with the shad and all the crappie in the lake that the bass fishing would be pretty good?? Just wondering.
