Fished here a year and a half ago for the first time. Caught a perch on a tip up surprisingly. Really weedy lake. looking forward to fishing it again.

Lake is really worthless. I'm astounded of how much water this lake has lost. Very few largemouths here and they are SMALL. Don't bother wasting your time at this lake. If Wisconsin doesn't receive any good rainfall or snowfall, this lake will soon cease to exist.
