Hi all,


I'm not sure this is the right board for this, but here goes.

I fished the West Branch Reservoir on Army trail Rd. today, for trout. No bites for me. A few anglers caught some, not many. Reports are: early morning was best. Waxies, worms, Power baits all took fish.
Now a question-- What in the world are the orange fences arranged in rectangles and "mazes" in shallow water on the opposite side of the lake from the parking lot???

i believe that they are used for aquatic vegitation. there isnt much in the lake and i think that they are trying to introduce some. the fenches i think help to keep ducks and geese out as well as fish and turtles.

proangler33 is right - that is what they are used for - hard to believe vegitation will grow in that stuff

Also that is the deep sde of the lake where the rock shoreline is. Plus they rebuilt the shore line there so you can walk around the lake
