Title: Evergreen lake muskie?
Post by: jmsteele187 on January 14, 2012, 12:40:26 PM
So... I found a site, hookandbullet.com, that had a list of lakes in Ohio and the fish that can be caught at them. It said that evergreen lake, in Swanton Ohio, had Muskie in it. Can anyone confirm this?

heard the same thing, a buudy told me about them in there, but they are few and far between. Left over from old stocking program.
It always interested me since I am in BG, but my friend said it is almost deplete with muskie.

I caught some perch out there during the spring, and I know there are some decent gills and crappie. So, I might just have to give it a try for the Muskie. The lake isn't all that big, and I feel a lure that rattles could call them in. If they are there I should be able to see them on my camera.

I'm in Toledo. If you ever feel like giving it a try, give me a shout. I'm game to give it a try.

Jaybird, where are you from? I'd really like to give it a try. Hopefully the rain we're supposed to get this week doesn't kill the ice. That lake is surrounded by trees and pretty well protected. I don't think wind will hurt it, but the rain might.
