If you fish the north shore look out for sunken logs but fish them with a wire hook and minnow under a bobber while drifting. On the southeast shore near where the channel runs you can get big bluegills this time of year after searching for awhile of drifting and using 1″ chunks of nightcrawler. This lake is very good for panfish. Good Luck..

Matth,

We do the same thing every year and have been going to Hobo’s Hideout on Long Lake in Washburn County Telephone 715-354-3453 and ask for Fred. He has several cabins, a tavern in lower level of his house, a place to have campfires, and several slips for your boat(s). Prices are reasonable for the 5 of us and its about 2 1/2 hours from here (LaCrosse). On a map of the area 15min N. of Rice lake look were County D and M meet and thats real close to Hobo’s. We did ok on walleyes one day in particular the 14th. Bass are everywhere and there are several lodges on that lake if you want to bar hop. Tell Fred that Miller sent you if you call him. Take care and have fun.

EC,
I have fished Red Cedar in the past and will again in 5 weeks. I want to know where Potato is and how many bars are there? Thanks.
