Sportfish1850 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Got an invite to this lake for a weekend in Mid Sept. What kind of fishing does this lake have to offer ? Just wondering if its worth the cost of the extra gas money and the non resident license to haul my boat from Alexandria to fish out there or if I should just plan on watching football and enjoying the company.

Bryan Pietig Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 It is a deep, clear, weedy bass/panfish style lake. The lake also had a fair population of muskies. The couple times I have fished for walleyes I have done really well. But it is a popular bass lake for good reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Kuhn Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Was out last night with 3 of us in the boat, which maybe should have been called Noah's Ark. We boated 2 muskie, 2 northern, 2 walleye, 2 white bass, and about a dozen largemouth in about 4 hours. Muskie were both small (2 year olds) and so were the pike. Walleyes went 17.5" and 23". Most bass were small. I have no idea what constitutes a big white bass but ours looked decent sized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBo Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 This is a good lake. Bear Trap which is connected is also good. As those above stated it is a great multi species fishery. Mid Sept. all fish should be hitting good at that time. I am a crappie, walleye guy and have seldom been dissapointed here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportfish1850 Posted July 22, 2008 Author Share Posted July 22, 2008 Thanks for the info guys. I love to catch and release bass and I've never caught a muskie of any decent size so it sounds like fun. Is there a slot limit on the walleyes ?

Walleye Guy Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 The state of Wisconsin has a statewide 15 inch minum on walleyes. I don't believe Wapo has any other special regulations for walleyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Kuhn Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 The state of Wisconsin has a statewide 15 inch minum on walleyes. I don't believe Wapo has any other special regulations for walleyes. It is still a 15" minimum, but it is in the ceded territory so it has a daily bag limit of 2. Otherwise the only other special reg that applies is the county-wide 40" minimum on muskies.
