Hey OFC'ers,
I'm heading up with my family to King City to a lake called "Marie Lake" - I was just curious if anyone's ever fished there before? And what fish can we expect to catch there? Any thoughts would be much appreciated...

UPDATE:
So, As you all know/read - I've been recently granted temp. access to fish Marie Lake (AKA: Mary Lake) at the Monastery. My apologies in advance, I don't have any pictures (cause my camera died! ) ARGH!!!
Anyway, I was able to fish the lake for maybe a total of 2hours (on a small tinny). I have NEVER fished a lake with SOO MANY ACTIVE FISH! Mostly PIKE (hammerhandles) but MAN was the action intense... We were using 4" Yellow Tubes and basically just dragging it along the bottom w/ the occasional pop. Our lures would get a hit every 5min - SO MUCH ACTION!! My little cousin (13yrs) was having so much fun - but didn't like the teeth on the pike! LOL!!
The best part of this whole experience - The guy that took us on the Tinny (works for the Monastery P/T) is a Tournament Fisherman. He's offered me the privilege to fish with him on his boat sometime - and maybe even in a tourny with him! :| (I'm not counting on the tourny - considering money is involved & I wouldn't wanna be the reason why he lost! )
Anyway, if you ever are granted temp. access to fish this lake - bring your PIKE gear. According to the 'guide' that took us out - there are some trophy sized pike and bass.
From what I can recall - He's told me there are PERCH, PANFISH, PIKE and BASS in this lake.
Well, that's my report - again, sorry I couldn't attach any pictures!
