I've been hearing some good things about a flowage (reservoir) north of
Rhinelander for quite a while and finally decided to check it out. Gil

and
I had a day off together, no one had anything going on so we decided to

head
north and see if the reality was as good as the reports.

We got on the water around 11:00 and fished it till 6:00. The weather
really wasn't the greatest, around 40 and threatening rain. It finally
warmed up to 51 degrees, with the water temps in the mid to upper 50's.

This body of water is awesome, 14,326 acres according to my Fishing

Hotspots
map. There's tons of submerged timber, stumps, rocky shorelines and
sand/gravel. It looked like it should hold a fish or two.

We ended up boating over a dozen smallmouth, I got cut off by a couple
muskies and had a nice muskie in the mid 40 inch class chase a spinnerbait
to the side of the boat.

We took pictures of some of the fish caught today. I've never seen

smallie
as deep in the body as these were. Good Lord, they were solid and strong.
If you'd care to see some of them, you can see them at the following link.

Same offer to you Warren as I made to Randy. Heck, carpool out here
together. There's room in my boat for another.

You know, I thought about it. But it's got such a bad reputation as a hull
cracker and lower unit eater, I purposely stayed off the lake until I
couldn't stand it any longer.

While I do want people to catch fish, I don't want anyone's boat damaged, or
worse, someone hurt or killed.

While I was on the lake, I never went over 30 mph and I was sweating bullets
the entire time I did that! Plus, this lake is an hour+ from Rhinelander,
that means no Rhinelander Pub & Cafe, No Al-Gen Friday night fish fry.

But I'm willing to discuss it further.
