The walleyes are thinning out but ALOT of small muskies. I caught 6 muskies opening weekend of walleye fishing on small crankbaits, all where under 25 inches. We got our limit of walleyes though and had time to catch some crappies, found some that were 12-14 inches and that was a blast. Also a great bass fishing lake but not many people know it.

fished this lake for the first time recently. impressive lake. little larger than what i prefer and when the winds kick up you can get beat up a little out there. good vegetation. good depth. clear water. bait fish population very strong. would appear to be an excellent muskie fishery and I look forward to learning the lake better. heavy fishing pressure brings it down to a 4 star lake.
