Default Re: Big Swartswood Lake Questions??????

just drive past the state park entrance and keep an eye out for a small wooden sign pointing right for "boat ramp". As said its 24hrs and the place is loaded w herring. It is a good fishery, but like alot of places, u have to figure it out or be shown what works there. The locals are sharpies, they are tight lipped. Excellent walleye fishing, but very tough to pattern. Good SM fishing too, again tough to pattern. Electric only and the place is big, 24V systems and larger reccomended. They have bubblers in the summer in 2 locations for O2 and the hoses are kinda marked off, be careful I almost hook them everytime I venture up there. Eyes are best at magic hours and at night, herring is bait of choice as are other classic walleye presentations
