daveis,

I've always wondered about Cavanaugh Lake. I've driven by many times but never fished it? What are the hot species there? Any good sized pike?

;) never fished it either, Going out to clear lake in the morning. I think there would be to many people on Cavanaugh Lake tomorrow

We used to fish Cavanaugh quite a bit, probably 7 years ago. Mostly the North end. We got the standard warm water lake species: gills, crappie, perch and a few monster bass. It's a neat lake, but tough to access. I think you can access from the south end park, but never tried. We knew someone who lived a few homes down from Jeff Daniels. He used to have a shanty on the ice, bumped into him a few times...nice guy!

Good Luck!

There are a lot of 20-22" pike in that lake. I've seen guys bring in bigger ones, and the guys out there claim there are some bigger ones. It's a good time if you don't mind catching small ones. They keep you busy.
