jaydub Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Heading out today for 5 days at a cottage on Buckhorn Lake with the family and plan on doing some fishing. Anyone know any good spots for large/small mouth, pike & walleye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jer Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I wouldn't expect any pike, maybe a musky. Bass can be found in any bassy looking area. Lotsa variety to choose from on this lake, depends where on the lake you are, but anything from slop to weedflats to rocky points and shoals. Not alot of deep water available, the walleye will be mixed up with the bass in the weeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerritt Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 (edited) For walleye I have done well with Erie Dearies tipped with worm at the weedlines. Bass, topwaters work great due the amount of weeds on this water body.. I remember in years past it was right chocked full of weeds with the exception of the main channel. We stayed at both Scotmans point and the Birches for years.. dont be afraid to get into the slop... but also be prepared for some frustration! lol Good luck! Ohhh you can also hit the narrows.. G PS... did well @ Target island.. look for a tiny island with the large triangle marker... Edited August 30, 2009 by Gerritt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Jer, I still have a heck of a time distinguishing between pike and musky so I probably wouldn't know forsure anyways. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
