Half hearted joke Don because it was tiny, and Gardner has some decent smallies, but the vast majority are 12”maybe 14”. A 3 lb smallie will be a Lunker.
I haven’t fished it in years, so maybe it’s gotten better, but it has a reputation for little smallies. Our CTF Smallie tournaments we use to hold there during prime spring time showed that year after year.
The largemouth are doing well, although mine were nothing special.
