I have had good luck out here but it's not consistent at all. This years it's been really tough. Does anyone have good luck on the steep shoreline breaks for walleyes. Seems like everyone fishes the south end hump to crowded for me. Or by the beach landing for pan fish.

Excellent sunfish good numbers of northerns and eyes. Some of excellent quality. Lots of 12 to 14 inch bass. Lots of rec. traffic on weekends but they do stay primarily out in the deep center.
