I have fished this lake for 7 years. Summer and winter.There are nice walleyes in this lake. But it needs to be fished later night or early early morning.

Outstanding Lake! Incredibly clean, clear, and perhaps the best swimming in the midwest. Deep, clear waters make daytime fishing difficult. Big water, sandy shores, great depths....a true winner!
