decent action
We fished this yesterday. 2 keeper crappies, Few keeper pan fish and one perch. ( a good deal of small pan fish ) No northerns today but we usually always catch a few snakes. Air temp was around 75 and the water was pretty warm, but I had no way to test it. We fished strictly with night crawlers othe than a few dozen casts with artificial lures. The weeds are in full force there already so a good amount of snags. ( fishing time 3:30-5:30) Reviewed Jun 9, 2023

Quiet lake with mostly small sunfish and small northerns. The couple fish we decided to keep were full of the yellow grub parasite.. Had to hold every fillet up to a light to make sure parasite was picked out of them before cooking.

A peaceful lake with lots of fishing action and always natural wildlife sitings along the shore. Great for paddle boating too.
