Calling all Highland Lake Fisherman
The Highland Lake Association is announcing the first annual Highland Lake Big Bass Bragging Board hosted on our Community Facebook Page and Website. Think you caught a Lunker? See how it stacks up to the biggest largemouth and smallmouth bass caught this year on Highland Lake. Send us photos and details of your biggest bass and we'll keep a running list of the top bass caught in this year.

Not a bass, but Colleen from Vista Dr caught this pretty nice perch on Friday, 9/11.
