Went to this lake last weekend with 7 other people. We hired 3 guides for half the day. Caught 114 Walleye, 2 musky, 11 perch, and 2 Bass. Saw eagles, loons and a deer swim across the lake. You tell me if we enjoyed fishing this lake...

Well worth the trek through the woods and over the gravel drive for muskie. Fishing is excellent! If you put the time in, be prepared to catch a hog!
