I've never been there and do I need a guide or not? Are cabin rentals reasonable or would I be better off just pitching a tent? Do they rent boats?? My boats way to small and I'd have to rent a boat.
You don't have to have a guide if you do your homework. If you can afford a guide, then you'll spend less time searching and more time fishing. You can do a search to find out more about cabins and stuff. I hear they are pretty reasonable, especially if you are sharing the costs with someone. If you are brave enough to put a tent out on the LBL side, your small boat may be fine if you camp in one of the larger bays. When the water isn't rough, you could move up and down the lake on that side. There are tons of bays that hold big gills and crackers to boot. Good luck to you guys, you'll probably see me out there. I love the bluegill and shellcrackers in late April and May.
