Fishing around Crosslake, Hackensack area???

I have a couple of days off and would like to go and catch some fish. If anyone knows of where the fish are hitting around here I would appreciate some info. I’m not asking for your secret spot but just some ideas on where to go. I don’t get out much anymore and so I can’t get out and search. I fish panfish, walleye, perch, pike and even eelpout and would be willing to go after any of these fish. I release pike over 3lbs and big female walleye’s so don’t worry I do respect the lakes that I fish.
Thanks

Lindsey (lind) lake in Backus has some good panfish that are easy to catch. Also has a huge population of Northerns but they are on the smaller side. A few eyes from time to time also.

I always wanted to try big trout (I think that’s the name) for some trout, (whitefish chain) that being said I have no idea when the season is open or not, so I’d check that out before hand, I hear there the DNR has strong presence up there.

Yeah I drive by there every day and see people out there but I have yet to try it. I’ve heard people do pretty good out there. The season opened up on January 13 I believe. Maybe I’ll try it on Sunday if the season is still going.

Give a report if you do, It just sounded like a lot of fun.

If your going for Walleye PM me for info. I’ve got Cabin near Backus and we slay the Walleye in the winter. I dont want to post the lake name here.
