I've heard there are some broodstock fish in there - I don't think they're quite that big, but???

I've tried a few times - no big fish that I've seen. Not being able to drive is a pain - I pulled my sled around to a few spots last year, but I'd have tried more if I wasn't walking!

I saw one swimming over by the boat launch the first time I went out ice fishing this year. It was easily over two feet long and 10 lbs plus. It was huge and had a medium brown color to it's back. Tokk a swipe at my lure then spit it out, I was just in awe of it's size.
