Wow, I have fished here for 10 years and this year tops it all.
We cought 6 fish (3 of us fishing) and they are big! the biggest one was 19" 5 lbs! the smallest was 14" 2 lbs. The lake: we hiked from the back way and was fishing by the water fall because the mane access was iced over. Its about a half hour walk. NOTE: Please becarefull when hiking down to the water the rocks slide, and you could fall.
The bait: we used pink marshmallows with a worm (my bro was fishing just with the marshmallow and cought the biggest) 5 feet from shore, two inchs off the bottom.
NOTE: the game police is camping on the top so bewear and follow the rules.
If you get your first two over 14" you have to switch to jig or spinners. or quit fishing for the day ( I know dumb rule) but thats what the Game police said.
The fish: after cleaning them I found that they are eating black bugs.

I returned on the 3rd of decmeber and it was iced over on both ends.
if it stays cold till saturday then the ice should be at 4 1/2 to 5 inchs. perfect for fishing on the ice.
NOTE: the middle of the lake was not iced over but the side of the middle was.
I hope you all enjoy!
