I've fished here by canoe many times over the last few years. I've only caught largemouth here; they're quite active during summer. In fact, last year I caught the largest bass I've seen here at just over 20". Main issue at this lake is the large amounts of slimy algae that gets all over my lures. I've tried for northern, but haven't snagged one yet. I also have not seen much panfish here either; just my luck.

Great fish in this lake, just caught a 3 lb largemouth on Labor Day at about 6:30 PM after a light shower. The problem is that the lake is shallow from the only easily accessible location on the lake. If I could take a canoe or something to get just another 100 ft out, it would be a 5 star location. I think there are supposed to be some upgrades coming to this part of the FP. The other problem is that you have to walk almost a mile with all your fishing gear to get to the lake and the daily limit is just 1 for bass and 2 for cats.
