This can be purchased at Redix, WalMart or Canady’s sporting goods. I believe the cost is $15.00. You can fish anytime during the day. I have found that early morning, just before daybreak, up until 8:00 am is great topwater action. After the sun is up I switch to soft plastics. The topwater bite is usually on again in the late afternoon. This past Thursday afternoon I caught 2 bass on the same topwater plug. One weighed about 3.5lbs the other 1.5lbs. I have never done this before but have seen it done. What a thrill! From Landfall’s Eastwood gate turn right. Stay straight on Eastwood; it will turn into MLK parkway. Continue past the airport on your right. Take the Whiteville exit just after the airport. You will cross the Cape River Bridge near the new PPD facility. Turn right on Hwy 421 at the base of the bridge. Stay straight on 421. About 2-3 miles you will go under an overpass (140). Get in the left lane. Another half mile on your left start looking for The Sutton Lake road sign. The entrance is on the left next to a fire and rescue station. You will see a NC wildlife sign. After you turn left the lake is located another 2 miles. Good luck and good fishing, Jim Coley Hi Will,
