This lake has froze out many times. No walleyes left at all! Tiny stunted perch is common

Fished the lake alot of years, after the winter kill not many walleyes and muskies left. Lots of small perch. The last winter kill really hurt the lake.

I fished this lake 5 years ago and again this summer. Large Perch are gone since the winter kill 2 years ago. Lots of 7 to 8 inch perch left. Walleyes were very tough to find. Tons of very small northerns. Did manage to catch a few nice largemouths off the islands.
