This lake can be a big hit or miss. If you are local tournament angler everyone knows about Lingberg Point which extended almost across the entire main lake. The big largemouth move in big packs up and down this point, hiding in the thick milfoil clumps. If you find the clumps with rock mixed in, you most likely will find the bigger fish. If you don't want to fish in the crowd - deep ledges, and weed-lines around the main lake can hold some good volume and size. Dropshot, Ned Rig, Jig, Football Jig, and Texas Rigs are main culprits on this lake. If the bite is slow in those regards, go to the pads and bullrushes and flip deep and pull them out slowly. If you go around the left point and go back to the Southern part of the lake, it shallows up quite substantially and frogging can be incredible if you hit it at the right time. It is a fun lake as long as it has not been beat up with tons of tournaments earlier that week or days before your outing. Try to fish it on overcast days and use natural colored baits

Dragging a queen tackle jig tipped with pork around inside weedlines. Using the pork frog helped me slow down and a lot of fish were caught on the fall due to this.

Slowly swimming over weed beds, letting it fall into pockets, caught quite a few. Was told black spinner bait was pure magic though.

Slowroll squarebill crank retrieve. Try to keep it just barely brushing the tops of weeds, pause after hitting weeds, pause is usually where the magic happens. Caught quite a few this way. Was also told that black spinnerbaits were killing it, but can’t verify.

The fish were definitely starting their summer to fall transition. Found fish in 7FOW and all the way out to 20FOW. Moving baits helped find fish and then slow moving jigs helped dissect the area producing quality fish.
