Ive done really well on Summit trolling Rapalas with a bit of worm on the end, about 75-100 feet back.

I used to love summit because it was sort of under the radar...but it seems like its getting more & more busy. Plus when it warms up the Jet Skiers and Wakeboarders really tear it up.

Still like it though.

Hicks Lake is a Major League Clusterf**k. Year round. All those Lacey Lakes are, but Hicks is the worst. Ive seen fights there over both crossed lines and boaters running over 3-4 ppl's lines at the ramp. I guess opening day powerbait fishermen dont want to get up that extra 1/2 hr early and drive somewhere farther out.

I usually only go on opening day b/c thats when The Wives let my friends out of the house. This year I have a much bigger boat though.

Oh yeah--There's a Bass in Summit Lake that's as long as a grown man's arm. I ain't saying where, but it's THE biggest bass Ive seen, and that includes TV and books.
