Shell Lake

[FishMoore]

I am taking the family up to the Shell Lake area Aug 5th- 7th to visit some family a little and do ALOT of fishing. What lake would be the best bet for some walleyes early and late in the day. I also am planning to try for a Muskie through the middle of the day. I was thinking Shell lake..I have never been on it before. It looks like I will be paying to launch there. I won't be taking any fish its all catch and release for me...Any I catch will go back for the rest to catch again. So any tips appreciated.

I'd focus on south bay for muskies, or some of the points on the main lake. I know the muskies in Shell feed heavily on small northern, so any 'snake' imitations should be a good try. Natural colors in general. Good luck.
