Damita and I fished the afternoon on March 5th at Masagana Farms.  The lake is very pretty with clear green water and visibility to 6 feet.  Water temp ranged from 57-60.  We fished the entire lake with very few results.  Damita caught a 1.5 pounder near the ramp right after we got the boat in the water and from then on it was slow.  I did manage to hang a 2.5 pounder near the west shoreline on a crankbait and caught a couple more that weighed neat 1.75lbs.

We did not get to meet the owner, but we saw him place a cooler by the boat ramp.  Sadly, we did not get to leave him any fish as everything measured 15" and up.  I left him a note apologizing.

There must be grass carp or some other large fish in the lake because we spooked a fish on the southeast shoreline that thrashed on the surface for about 20 feet.  This fish was huge and appeared to be three to four feet in length.
