    LAKE ROUSSEAU

    Never fished it -

    have a tournament there this season.

    Is it worth it or should this be one that I skip?

    Big fish kill after Irma, I haven't heard anything good about it since.

    Fish it ... it's different for sure, but very pretty area.
    It's not just about the tournament, far from it.
    Get outside, enjoy the experience and the scenery.

    If you fish it only run the big motor in the channel. I fished it 1 time and damaged the bottom of my boat. I was 2 feet out side the channel just starting to go on plane and I teeter tottered a stump that was 5 inches below the surface. I haven't fished it since in my own boat lol... as for fishing my buddy's used to fish it monthly and have not been back since Irma. There was a huge fish kill and the fishing has not been the same.
