Jibbs,How have you done there ice fishing? I Ice fished that lake twice in the winter and the first time we fished out from the launch by the small island, and didn't do crap. The second time we fished the rocky cove near the public beach and at noon caught some nice small mouths. This was probably 10 years ago. I fish it a lot in the summer and do well with large mouths, I haven't caught a small mouth in there in years. I would be interested on how you do through the ice there. There are some huge blue gills in there, maybe big enough to win the ice shanty tournament with. Let me know if you go how you made out.
Jibbs,It might be hard parking there in the winter with the snow banks, the town beach is your best bet for parking, but the beach down to the water is a little steep. The far end is the best fishing, that is were there are some nice blue gills also, I've caught them on top water plugs fishing for bass. I have a 17 foot bass tracker and I just make it in there, coming out is real fun, you have to back the trailer under the boat. Good Luck
