Beaver Lake, Waukesha County

Haven't been on a lake for awhile, managed to get out on Beav from 430 to 7 pm after work. Wasn't expecting much with the wind out of the NE. It was ok fishing tho. Caught 13 largemouth, 3 gills, 2 perch, a pike and a rock bass. Got  two 8 1/2 inch gills, a 9 1/2 rock bass and a 9 inch perch I kept for supper. All the bass were 11 to 13 1/2 inch. Fish were in 11 to 16 ft of water

My daughter and I took the canoe out Sunday, 7/30, between 6:30a - 9:30a. We fished the west side just north of the "hump" caught a few smallish bluegills and a couple 12" largemouth. Then we fished just east of the saddle on the north edge of the lake and caught several more 12" largemouth. All morning fish were breaking the surface. It was a very good outing for us, we really enjoyed how beautiful and quiet it was. People at the launch were very friendly - such a great experience. A much better experience than we've ever had on Lake Keesus.

What did we use? We started with baby night crawlers and red worms, but then I put a brown colored 2" twister tail grub on, which turned out to be a great switch. We caught 4 of our 6 largemouth on the green pumpkin and peanut butter & jelly (sort of purple).

Enjoy! Keep a tight line!

No boat landing, no trailers allowed, and the Chenuqua PD patrol it once every hour. The ticket for everything illegal is $40. I received a ticket from an officer at the landing for a trailer accidentally forgot I couldn't bring it.... Immediately went to pay the ticket at 11pm after fishing at the chenequa PD office.... Officer who ticketed me served with me in the Marines, had no idea it was me. Ticket was already submitted, had no choice but to pay it lol. 

There is no boat landing on this lake.  There must be a private one somewhere because of all the pleasure boats I've seen on this lake, most likely property owners. Heck the lake even has zebra muscles! But the access is carry-in only and down a set of steps, and unless they've changed something in the last several years there's no trailer parking in the lot, single stall parking only and I think there's room for about 10 vehicles.

The carp in this lake are absolute monsters!!! On top of that the whitebass population in here is pretty substantial  considering the clarity and lack of any structure what so ever.
