25 miles south and east...

Been a crapty year for those lakes. A lot of dinks, I personally don't think they are managed well. Flint may be your best bet though.

Personally, I think if you want good fishing you indiana boys and especially that "super yooper" guy should just venture a little north and experience the fishing in "PURE MICHIGAN"!! LOL ;D

Big gills in Valpo arent easy to come by. The best is usually early ice. When its questionable whether you should be on the 1-2 " . Then it takes alittle more work and search to find them. Im sure its no secret that access to the Valpo lakes has been cut dramatically over the years. So with less water to fish, everyone ends up on the same few bodies of water and its that much more tougher to get on em. Those are pressured waters.
