This lake has good pike action. Most are small, but don’t be surprised by a 8-12 pounder. Largemouth are good as well, with many in the 2-3 pound range. Been told it’s a great crappie lake, but only caught one, but was fishing for bass. Saw a 24 inch musky caught. So they are there. But, as close to Fawn Lake as it is. I would think this will happen more! Boat ramp is sand with concrete underwater. Easy in and out!
