A little west and south of the knoll has produced some nice gills and 8-10" perch for me this year. 13 - 17' of water in that area has been best for me.

The "knoll" is the point of the hill on the east side of the lake that sticks out, there is a bay to the north and the south of the point. It is easiest to access by driving up the south dike, where you will see an access point to the lake with a heavy trail going out onto the ice. Hope that is a little more clear.

Thanks for the tips and the map. I was wondering where all the people were going who kept driving by the boat ramp.
Any reason there was no one fishing in the NE part of the lake?
