CONSTRUCTION:
The South parking lot is done. Please follow the arrows. Park so you can PULL out not back out. The lights won't be put in until this fall. THANK YOU

WARNING:
There is a big rock at the mouth of the channel. When you come in from the lake stay close to the center. The rock is 1' under water and 5' from the west wall. Also as of Saturday July 12, we had some bad weather that brought in some algae that has filled the channel. With it came some mud too. Be careful when going out into the channel. Keep your props up and if your engine overheats while going out, once you get out in the lake put your engine in reverse, back up a few feet, put into forward. Do this a couple times to free props of algae.

FISHING:
Walleye seem to be found just about everywhere but you got to look for them. Boaters are trolling on the south side of the first trench going West in 63 ft and deeper. Also, in close to shore in 28-39 ft all along the shore line. Use medium dipsys off the boards 115 back with worm harnesses of black and purple when cloudy and yellow and green when it is sunny. Size of fish for angler award (citation)is 8 pounds. Usually, 28" is an 8 pounder. (Depending on the girth.)

Perch can be found straight out of Walnut Creek in around 50-52 ft of water. Also between Walnut and Trout in about 52-54 ft. Emerald shiners are the preferred bait.
