The only fish I've caught in this lake were fish that showed just before I
caught them. Very few fish show on the surface of the lake.

If anyone has a reccommendation, I'd be glad to hear it. The season ends
Nov. 15.

Some food forms are common to all lakes and ponds. On a strange pond, where
you donīt know what the fish are taking, one of the best tactics is to fish
a woolly bugger at varying depths. They are often very successful when
crawled along the bottom.

One might also use a chironomid imitation on a strike indicator.

How many fish were originally stocked does not necessarily reflect the
current population density, indeed, it almost certainly does not.
Furthermore, if there are indeed 2o lb fish in the lake, then they feed on
fish. There is nothing else large enough or in sufficient abundance to
support them. Such fish will fairly quickly decimate stocks of fish.

If your intention is to catch one of these lunkers, assuming they do
actually exist, then you are probably best advised to fish a very large
streamer, 8" long or larger, and trail ( often incorrectly referred to as
"Trolling"), it behind the boat.
