Fishing on this lake isn't the greatest. Not much in the way of meaningful structure. There are some cribs along the southeast shoreline (to the right of the campground). These seem to hold fish for much of the year. Mainly a good perch lake but an occasional walleye or northern isn't out of the question. This lake doesn't get much fishing pressure but due to the shape of the lake, it gets allot of waterskiers and jetskis. Better to try either Big lake or Big Stone for better quantities of gamefish.
