I've fished quite a bit on badin, mostly bass fishing. It's probably my favorite lake around. It's not unusual to have a 3 to 4 lb. average day out there. Where Norman and some others would be more like 12 to 14 oz. days. I also know quite a few guys who troll for striper in the colder months and they have caught some monsters. Plus if your there at the right time when the white bass are schooling you can just sit in the boat watch for a school and as soon as you see one throw any lure in your box at it and you'll catch one. It's like fishing for guys who don't have the patience for fishing.
