    the one good one weight 6.5 pounds. just be warned not a lake you can run on pad on without risk of damage to motor/boat. lots of stumps. typical summer bass fishing pattern. good luck have fun.

    go to the creek channel on the southwest side of the lake and throw 10-inch worms near the ledges. or run crankbaits. I've had pretty good luck doing that. depending on where you live Ohkema is also a great lake with lots of grass and rip rap and has good fish in it.

    That's actually about the same distance. I'm looking into it now. It looks good

    I just want to add to watch out for those pigmy rattlers. They're small and they will bite you for thinking about them. They like to hang out around the reeds.

    Small lake wise I would go to okemah before I went to drip…. Wetumka had numbers and some good ones. Numbers in the grass, big fish off shore on any of your choices.
