Clear is one of my 'go to' lakes in the Northwoods if you can't catch fish on Clear, you can't catch fish. Great bass lake both LMB & SMB. Fish size: mostly 'eaters' occasionally you will get a 4-5 LB LMB or a 3-4 lb SMB. Panfish good if you can find the weeds. Don't even waste your time fishing in the bay near the State Campground. When you fish Clear don't forget to respect wildlife and feed the eagles.
