well for all you Musky hunters out there that think there is a hiden honey hole down south in johnson's res.. then think again..
i just got back from a overnighter down that way.. we spent the whole day casting everything i could think of and then some at them..
we did catch 1 musky, it was all of 22"long and about 3 lbs..
i got talking to the nice DWR guy that stoped in.. and he said that they did a gill net study of the lake some time ago.. and did not find many Musky in there and no rainbows at all..
so about 10 min's after he left i got back in my tube to try again.. on about the 10 th cast i hit a 21" around 2 1/2 lb rainbow.. go figure..
all in all a real crapy day fishing.. how ever it's a very beautiful lake and not very many pepole fishing it. after we fished all day i could see why..
it looks like the lake is realy good at growing chub and suckes and not much else..
