[murph1]

anyone ever fish there? been there a number of times,but nothing of any real size...as many small bass that i've seen there has to be some larger ones in there....and just small pike as well....just can't figure the lake out....:)

Besides a good duck lake, and years ago it use to have a camp ground on the southside of the lake..if you go through the center of the lake there are reeds..park in the reeds and through out a crawler and let it sit..taken many 15 to 18 inch bass and some big pike(26 to 33 in) from there.The other end from the launch there are houses..just before you get there to the other end...there is a nice point on the right(had a blind someone puts there) and big deep hole there filled with the monster PIKE that got off last fall ..was fishing during the blue bird day of duck season..LOL.....have fun and good luck..if you get that BIG PIKE(monster) in take a picture and post it would you please

Some good 'gills-lots of small-medium bass and some remarkable decent perch-last year I actually got one 13" from there-right off the dropoff by the houses.

Murph1,

I've fished it a couple of times and I've felt like I didn't know where to start. My gut told me that it would be a fantastic panfish lake due to the abundance of deep holes, flat shallow areas, dropoffs, weed beds, etc. But I couldn't seem to get away from the swarms of stunted bluegill. The big ones must be in there somewhere. Looks like it would be a good crappie lake, too, but I have yet to catch one.

I did see a bald eagle there on my last trip, however.
