I’m heading to Orchard lake with my class tomorrow and was wondering if anyone had any advice on some spots to target other fish becides those dang sunnies? I don’t need anything fancy but a general idea or technique would be extremely helpful. does it have some nice bass in it? How about northerns?
Thanks in advance
Cast around the two grass islands and that point by far island with spinner baits. Bass, northern or muskies
good luck
hows it goin, realy nice lake, know a guy that caught a couple waleye w/ slip bobber & minnow from shore. lots of small bluegill. if your on a boat, troll the north end in 20-30 feet of water with deep crankbaits and you shold get some really nice muskys- (there are some huge ones in there) biggest i caught was 38 inches. large mouthe bass are there, and some big ones, but kind of hard to find more than a couple. good luck!!!!!!! p.s, they just did some weed removal, so there might be some really nice bass & crappie spots opening up. 
Thannks for the info. We had 6 boats going out with our class. It was an incredibley fun day to be on the water. My boat caught 6 bass over 16″ and a 30″ musky. We worked the shorelines for most of the day, the other boats took the advice of our teacher who lives on the lake and fished the smaller island. I heard of 1 27″ musky coming out of there and a ton of sunnies and crappie. I am going to have to try the trolling idea next time I am out there. I used a skitter prop for the entire day and have the groups I took out use an assortment of other lures depending on their skill level.
Thanks again,
Chris
