I've only fished it from kayak a few times, always in Nov-Jan, trolling crankbaits or drifting curly tails for stripers. Usually launching from either Occoneechee state park ramp and fishing around the bridges or from Longwood. One time I tried County Line. The lake almost always produces something for me.
No idea what to do with it this time of the year, though. I know the bass tournament guys seem to like it when the water is up in the bushes, but beating the banks is not my favorite use of a kayak. Of the 3 launches I've seen, I'd take Longwood for the majority of the year - nice mix of deep water and access to the creek area. More room to roam than county line and some protection available from the wind. But I probably haven't seen 1/100th of the lake.
