    Good try anyway are they charging to launch your boat or to shore fish thinking about trying some shore fishing maybe could cast close to some brush piles

    Yes they do charge a fee for bank fishing you can pay by the day or the year not sure what the charge is I pay $100 to launch my boat all year as for the question about whether I like Prairie Creek or Summit Lake better each lake has its time and place Prairie Creek is a good spring and summer and fall Lake summit's really tough in the summertime when the weather gets hot

    I've got some buddies who wade from shore and catch a lot of prespawn walleye around this time of year but I just concentrate on the slabs!

    This time of year, I go for walleye mostly. Once it warms up a little, I hit the crappie. Best crappie was 16.5 inch from PC
