Charlevoix has whitefish???? I grew up on that lake on the south arm near East Jordan and never caught any or heard or seen any caught. And I fished every day as a kid and into my early 20's

aboslutely.  Theres a place that smokes them right on Lake Charlevoix in town there.  Plus they can get in from the big lake.


Check out the DNR survey if you don't believe it.
