I fish a lake around the corner from my house that's over 60 years old. I have caught an 8 and an estimated 10-12 pounder out of it. I hooked probably a 13 or 14 pounder one day but it broke my line. i also hand-grabbed a monster by the tail that probably weighed 10 lbs. if not more, but that was on very abnormal days. On a typical day I will go and catch 5-10 fish weighing 1/2 lb. to 1 1/2 lbs. if that.. How could I manage it properly? It has some HUGE bluegills in it but there are so many small bass that the probability of catching a big bass isn't very likely. A few years after the lake was built they pulled a 12 pounder out of it and filled the trunk up with water and rode it around town showing if off lol. My how the times have changed. I believe it's around 12 acres with tons and tons of structure in it. Beautiful lake with huge fish, you just don't see them very often. Anyhoo, my question is, how do i manage it properly? Slot limit, etc.. What do i need to do?
