The other lakes shouldn't be far behind. Deerfield is alright, I've had better luck on Pactola. Perch I would say Sheridan and Stockade.

Where did you move in from? Military?

Rooster is right, Sheridan and Stockade are the best spots. I'm starting at Stockade. It's 3 miles S.E. of Custer. I went on about Deerfield in the other thread because I thought it would ice up first. I didn't consider temperature inversions. When I went up there and drilled those holes it was 10 degrees warmer than Sheridan and sunny. Welcome to the area!!

You'll find our fisheries adequate enough to keep you from spending a ton of money traveling to fish.
