I am wondering if anyone here has ever fished Oak lake in Burnett county Wisconsin. If so when did you fish it and how did you do? My wife’s parents just bought a cabin on the lake and would like to hear others experiences good or bad.
If it is the Oak Lake by A and H, I have some friends with a cabin on that lake. I know it has tons of pan fish and northerns. I would assume it has bass too. I don’t believe it has walleyes or muskies. Back in December, I saw a picture of my buddies dad caught a 38 inch pike through the ice on Oak Lake. I have not personally fished the lake though.
My family used to stay there 3 to 4 times a summer when there was a resort there. Great bass fishing,nice sized northerns, lots of sunfish off the docks but there is bigger one that will take a 3/8oz spinnerbait,and crappies if you can find them. If you like bullhead fishing theres lots of them and none stop action after dark.
I’ve always heard that lake has no public access. I have been driving by it for years and always think it must be special because of that fact.
It’s good to hear there is something in the lake. I have been out there a couple times now and only caught a couple hammer handles.
Make sure you swing by A&H for groceries and bait then

why cant you? that change? there used to be tons of sleds there and at the sand bar when it was still open.
my father in law helps out at the shop at times. and I frequent it often in the summer. . usually there after dark and fishing turns off.

McKenzies Landing use to be known for that. We still stop in there for a drink once in a while but the atmosphere is not the same as the old place that burned down. I’m sure the food is still very good but inside its dullsville and they have a microscopic bar. Dont get me wrong. Nice place, great location and I will be back.
Since we’re discussing this area has anyone been to West Point? We recently discovered this iconic place and the food has been great. The ribs on Sat night were special and the breakfast we had two weeks ago was very good.
Westpoint is another cool establishment.
We’ve ice fished in front of there and stopped afterwards. I think it was last winter that Buckslayer got a dead battery while we were fishing and we had to ask someone from Westpoint to give us a jump. We paid them back for their good deed by buying a couple rounds. Good people.
West Point
I was there back in my other life… don’t remember much…..Apparently I had a great time….so I was told.
Where is West Point located? I haven’t been there yet. But yes the prime rib at the shop is awesome.
I went out ice fishing this weekend at Oak lake. I bought 6 shiners and a peperoni pizza just in case I got skunked. Caught 7 bass and a northern (snake). Had to recycle 2 of my minnows, LOL.
