I have fished this lake for about 10 years and I have to say it is a pretty good spot. Live bait always produces and if you use the right lures, they do too, all catch and release, is nice, so the lake has a large population of bass, crappie, bluegill, and pike. Also a great spot to catch carp and catfish. Walleye are very rare, and so are Muskie, unless you know their patterns, all and all one of my favorite lakes to fish.

Found a little spot on the lake that has a playground in the park about 30yds from the bank where you fish. Perfect for fishing with little ones who might need a break to hit up the swings and not end the day. Caught the largest bass I have ever caught and met another very nice angler. All in all, a place worth dropping a line or two; you won’t be disappointed.
