Have any of you guys fished lake Hemet before? I am going to head up there camping for a few days and have fished it one time some years ago and did not get bit! I know it is not a tournament venue so I wanted to see if any one could give me a clue!

Not many but the few I've collected electrofishing are all 7-10 lbs.

Do you know what happened to them? About 20 years ago when I was a teenager I remember catching tons of 10-12" bass on top water poppers and crankbaits.
