Set out on the water around 7pm with Eric. Paddled over to the immediate right side of the lake from launch site at least two beavers seemed to be out slapping the water pretty hard on this side of the lake, yet plenty of fish were seen surfacing still. Ran into a few schools of 50+ perch which terrorized our night crawlers. Most of the action was in the top 18 feet of water. Lots of larger trout and LMB surfacing for bugs around sunset. We only had luck getting perch although we tried trolling and still fishing just about everything we had before getting off the water at 9:30.
One of the guys who lived on the lake tried to be a tough guy about who dropped the cigarette butt at the launch while smoking one himself, neither of us smoke, so he eventually just picked it up and left. Overall, I would love to return and fish here more often as the lake is very secluded and peaceful. Just a heads up nothing that goes over 5mph is allowed out here and the lake is closed to visitors 10pm-4am. Watch out for tough guys.
