Forgot to answer all of your points...sorry...
Looking at my experience (which is limited to 2003 - current)
Best fishing Early spring: North of Pend Bridge
Late spring: Mid lake, South Lake.
Summer: South Lake
Fall:Mid lake, South Lake
Winter: I really have issues during the winter fishing (stay close to home mostly)
BTW, I live in Central Louisiana and get to frequent Toledo Bend fairly often as it is only two hours away. I have my map and am extremely impressed. I have caught some nice fish out of Jesse Lowe but never realized all the areas I was overlooking! Thanks Catt.
Very good Information and I can't wait for the next installment.
Fishfordollars, I will def get with you when we start looking around for a place. If you need a Fishpartner sometime let me know. Thanks
