[quote ratnest]Never been to the place before, but with a little bit of research on-line I was able to find coordinates. Has any one fished there with success in the spring summer or fall?[/quote]
[#0000FF]Most who fish it hit it during the winter...by following the tracks in the snow from others who preceded them. And without GPS numbers it is hard to find otherwise...even by folks who know where it is.
There are a few who fish it from boats at other times of the year. There are always fish there...especially cats during cooler months. They like the warmer water. Other fish like the warmth too but the inflow from the springs is mineralized and not agreeable with more delicate species.
I have had a couple of reports of guys finding catfish at all levels of the water column during the summer. But not nearly the numbers of white bass that hang out there during the winter. And virtually zero walleyes during the warmer months.
Short answer? There are better spots around the lake when the ice is gone.
