Thanks Jeff and Swimbait,

About Lexington. I'm ADDICTED to this place! The hotspot isn't really hot anymore, but I still call it that for lack of a better name. There really isn't any secret to this place. Just fish it and you will catch fish. They're everywhere. If you really want to go I can give you some detailed spots to try.

You're allowed to float tube and kick boat there now. I've never seen a ranger this winter so I don't really know. The lake is about 70 feet down, so launching isn't very fun.

As for the Campbell Perc Ponds. If you ever been there, you'd understand that the posibility of another striper being caught is next to nill. They're tiny and extremely shallow. I personally hate them. Stevens Creek has scads of super-aggressive trout eaters in spring (I've got stories about them :), but they don't really get above 6-7 pounds.
