Good crappie action , sizes vary from year to year but time it just right and you can catch you limit in 20 mins. Good bass action , walleyes have been good do to recent stocking , pike seem to do better during ice fishing

With the lake being a green color it does not help the situation. But it is a predominate panfishing lake and it really only seems like you can catch fish using live bait

Pretty nice panfish and crappie action. Try ice fishing behind that Pokegama Inn (Bar... whatever you wanna call it).
