Stunted fish and crowded recreational boaters.
Used to fish this lake regularly. It had a good population of bass, panfish, and musky. Now it's hard to find a bass over 16 inches in this lake. The panfish are common, but small, with very few eater-class fish. Musky can be had around the 40-inch mark. Overall this lake is a shell of its former self. Sad to see, it still is a pretty body of water in the spring and fall when the jetskiers aren't out from sun up to sunset. Reviewed Jan 12, 2023

used to fish this lake when i was a little kid and it was awesome. the past two years have been really tough though. Walleyes are non existent. Bass fishing is decent, but very few over 18 inches seem to be left. Panfishing is still good, but the size seems to have went down a lot

Not a good lake for big fish, or numbers. musky fishing in the sumer is fine but ice fishing is really slow over all. unless you can get lucky and find some crappie early ice,
