best lake in the fairbolt area

[Bass Whacker]

We are trying to decide what lake would be best for our club tournament and i am just curious as to what lake you guys thiink is the best in that area.

[ikeslayer]

i am assuming for bass. I personally think cedar is best for bass but there are some other ones over there as well. Sheilds is decent but hasn't been good to me in recent years. But cedar is pretty consistent action and usually has some quality fish. i am sure a few other guys like katoguy will jump in and be more educated then me. i know a fun slp lake is Kelly dudely but not the best for a tourney probably. good luck

Thanks for the help and yes cedar is already in the hat. the lake for this tournament is getting drwn from a hat the morning of. so please keep the suggestions comeing

Whacker, what date will this be as there will be several contests in the area over the next few weeks.

I would guess you must have a small number of boats to be able to draw in the morning. Cedar, Shields, Mazazka, & Roberts all can be fun and large enough for 15 boats. I was on Cedar on the opener and today (pre-fishing). I was on Shields Sunday. (We did quite well on Shields - staying quiet about Cedar for now.)

If you want to go a little further, Tetonka/Sakatah, Jefferson/German, and Madison.

yeah its only 6 boats if everyone shows and its on sunday i heard there is a large tourny on cedar like 30 plus boats i heard so im really hopeing that dosent get drawn but thanks to all for the help

[katoguy]

We'll have 35 boats on Cedar. The access only holds about 25 rigs, so I imagine the landing will be pretty full early by 5 a.m. or so.
