Good bass fishing lake, but I fish for walleye. Wallleyes are hard to find on this lake, but if you land one chances are it will be about five pounds. When I did catch a walleye here it was a nice size, but they were few and far between. Good Northern Lake, especially because I don't spear fish anymore. J.k. I used to live on the lake.

The Smallmouth fishing was great. We boated a lot of 12" smallies. Boat travel is unpredictable and dangerous with its steep climbing walls topping out at less than a foot in unexpected places.
