Fish this lake every year, and get TONS of fish. Good size bass, and occasional Musky. Plenty of Northern, just need to know where to look.

Very stained lake. Smells like paint. Not a good fishing lake at all. The people of Phillips though are very nice, and the Red Pine resort is a first class beautiful resort. We seen lots of different wild life on our trip, however none was seen on, or near the water.
