Sand Lake

[jcfishr]

Anyone out there with experience fishing Sand Lake in Sawyer County? It's supposed to be a pretty good muskie lake. Seems a little fished out for walleyes. I heard there was a plan to manage walleyes including some special regs. Curious what others have heard.

Good numbers lake for muskies but not much for size. Lots of fish up to 40". A few in the low to mid 40's and very rarely a 50". Know nothing about the eyes there.

Yup. I caught one of those "up to 40" skis there while fishing from a kayak. I can actually say I've been "towed" by a muskie.

I believe that the walley size limit is one over 28", think it has been for a couple of years. It is decent musky lake, good numbers and occasionaly big fish.

yup. by limiting walleyes to one trophy, they are trying to get the population to rebound. i heard it used to be a great walleye lake - too bad. the only walleye I have caught there is a little shaker off a friend's dock. (released, of course)
