This lake is by no means a easy lake to fish. I agree with Blake that you have to know when and where to go. I grew up fishing on this lake have had days where I could not stop fish from jumping in the boat and then again I have had days where I sat for hours and could not get even a mosquito to bite. Some seriously nice muskies in this lake though.
