Lake Rosseau fall fishing?

[Sudzy]

Any tips for this lake (or any lake in the area for that matter) for fishing Walleye/bass/pike this time of year?

Smallies should be bulking up, so look for them in the usual rocky places....tube jigs, slash baits are probably good choices. Big pike in the lake...just put your time in with bigger baits...spinnerbaits are popular...any weedbeds you can find bordering on deeper water would be ideal.

It's a pretty large body of water...either run and gun, or stick to one area and work everything really thoroughly.

Thanks, anybody have any spots on this lake? I have been around Bass Island with some luck in the summer. It such a big lake its hard to know where to start.

my friend owns a cottage on rosseau and we go there all the time during the summer, im not sure what island its called because theres plenty on the lake but theres one directly acros the lake from his cottage and we always always catch big smallies around it. it goes from 30 feet to nothin in a mere 10 -15 feet.
