White bear lake, Big Marine or Bald eagle

my buddy and i are going out on friday and were new to those three lakes and were wondering which lake we would have the best luck fishing for northerns and musky. we were gunna pitch some plastics under docks and what not for bass, but what have the fish been biting on??? any pointers would be greatly appreciated!!!

My opinion (as stated in the other post) would be Forest Lake, even though you didn't mention it, for both muskie and northerns. WBL has more northerns but they are small. Forest Lake has large northerns and we couldn't keep the muskies off during last summers Fishing MN bass event.. I think every boat got one or more... I know our small boat got two. Pesky critters during bass tourney.

I was out on White Bear last Friday with a buddy and I caught my first, a 42 and missed another that was around 45. We also saw another one, smaller say 36 or so in the shallows. If you go out on a week day White Bear and Bald Eagle aren't bad but forget it if you plan to hit it on a Saturday. Tons of boat traffic. I haven't fished BM for a while now so I really can't comment too much about that lake.

I forgot to mention, the south end of White Bear is where we were fishing and saw them all. Think deep edge of the weedline.
