I used to know someone who had a cottage on that lake, he always said the fishing was tough and the walleyes were mostly small.

Would love to know if that's true or not, I've driven by that lake countless times....

 

Best of luck to you and your group.

That's not too encouraging. Also, I would like to know what species it holds. I'd love to get into a mess of whitefish or perch, maybe some lake trout? Are there any good lakes close by within a half hour drive or so? Thanks a ton!

Are you talking Kabenung north of Wawa?

Are you talking Kabenung north of Wawa?

 

Unless there's another one that's the one I was talking about.

LOL..you never know sometimes!

 

Anyways...the lake is coming back...the walleye fishing is pretty good now, with some fair sized fish in it. Also, not many people know that there is a decent smallmouth bass population in the lake now, and a few people from Wawa head there, just for them, as there are not many places around here for bass.

 

Also, it is a big lake with lots of islands, and you can get lost fairly easy, so GPS is hihly recommended.

Good to know! that is the lake I'm referring too. I love bass fishing. How's the pike population? My Dad Has it in his head he's going to catch a monster. I'm getting a GPS this weekend being as it's my birthday soon. Happy to hear about the eyes too, I don't want anything huge, just something to eat for lunch type of deal. Thanks for the replies!
