I have fished this lake only a couple times but both times the bass were small. Larger pan fish are hard to come by. The largest fish I saw in the lake both came on the same day by a friend, one wound up on a wall. The lake needs to mature in my opinion.

Every year I ice fish I don't end up sucessful. Summer fishing is pretty fun you can catch some decent size bass and okay notherns 24"-26", but nothing really massive. The panfish are average in size and are always fun to catch.
