Called the marina today and they said people are catching some white bass from boats. $5 launch fee for kayaks – put in envelope with vehicle license number or take to office.

Good scouting trip – between the five of us we caught over 100 fish. Many species – white bass, black bass, yellow bass, spotted bass, and a large drum.
