Black Oak Lake was 1/2 open this morning when I drove through the boat landing area so for sure it will be open and ready for this comming weekend! I hope everyone is getting their rods and reels ready for the big opening weekend. I'd love to see some pictures of the monsters ya pull out of Black Oak Lake because there are some real trophies in there. Just please remember to do the catch and release thing, since the 30 inchers don't taist as good as a 18 incher anyway, plus the big ones produce big ones.
