I've seen those quarries on Google Earth and often wondered if they were stocked.
I have no advice to give however as I am the worst Bass fisherman in the entire history of the universe.
Good luck,, let us know how it goes.

Cant go wrong with a black plastic worm, enough weight to get it to the bottom and a 2/0 worm hook. If you can find a decent drop off, you might want to try dancing a large spoon.
Let us know how you fair.

I didnt know they let people fish those lakes? They are so crazy about trespassing and all back there that I was sure no one was allowed in until they built those houses. I know theres a big homeless camp back there though.

I like to swim them at different speed, twitch em like a jerk bait, and let them sink to the bottom and bounce them along.
I always seem to do well with large gold color, reminds me of a large shiner.
