Thinking of Trying Fellows for the first time in several years, advice or tips?

Last time I tried fishing fellows, kayaks weren't allowed. I think? It was several years ago and a park ranger ran me off the water. I've tried bank fishing all up and down near the fishing dock and never had any luck.

But I guess the lake is kayak friendly now? So that's great news. Is there actually decent fishing out there, or is it the kind of thing where you might as well drive 30 more minutes and go somewhere else? The bank fishing left me with the impression that the lake has hardly anything in it.

I am mostly interested in bass and crappie.

I’ve caught plenty of bass out there. A lot of that was out of a kayak.

I’ve never done well fishing from the bank out there.
