I am in south Rockdale. The lake is not fertilized and not fed. I was fishing yesterday and pulled another 8 small bass out, they weren't hitting well. The water is crystal clear, can see the bottom 6ft deep. Bream are doing a little better this year, I caught about 20 nice sized, a few big enough to lip like a bass. I see no bait fish around the shore, all of the other lakes I fish have alot of small bass and bream swimming around any cover they can find, but my pond I don't see any. I saw for the first time this year a school in the middle of the lake breaking the surface. All day long they would go from one send of the lake to the other. I don't know what they are, but I don't think they would be bass or bream. I did get a little encouragement yesterday though, there are at least three bass in there at least 8# or better. All day they patroled the shoreline. They're huge, but I can't get them to hit anything, not even live bream.
