Comments: Great shore fishing for muskies, bass, sunfish, perch, and walleyes. The lake has boat rental and a concession stand. In late fall, you can catch walleye at dusk by casting a large minnow hooked on a floating jig about 15 inches above a slip sinker. (Ask someone in a bait shop or tackle store to show you this rig).
