My property is in Rapides Parish, not far from Glenmora. The north and east sides are deeper and have more structure (brush, fallen trees, etc). The bass I caught there looked pretty healthy. They were dark and fairly chunky. The ones I caught on the south and west sides (which are more shallow and have less cover) were lighter and pretty skinny. I found that to be strange, seems like they would move around enough for there to be no differences. Of course I only caught about 8 of them, so that is not a large sample size.

The big bass was very healthy looking. She was not very long, but was very fat and thick. I don't think it could have weighed any more than it did.

I am very limited in my fishing because of the brush around the lakes. I really need to put a boat in and do some serious fishing to get a better idea of what is in them.
