I lived by Shawano Lake for over thirty years. Great lake, always got fish there. Want some tips. Sidle up to a cluster of anyone of a thousand shacks, put a six pac of beer on one side of you, a pot of hot coffee on the other side. When someone walks by complain of not knowing what your doing. Then ask them to sit down, and have a beer, or cup of coffee. Then let them talk, YOU keep quiet.
