We were there last year for a week and there were a tonne of walleye. I started off with a big chartreuse shad swim bait trying to target the pike and for the most part stuck with it for the whole trip. I was a bit surprised as walleye of all size classes were hitting it, and aggressively. We mostly caught walleye but I did manage to get into a couple pike in the 43-44" range back to back and my boy lost a gooder to the following morning. Over the whole trip though we maybe caught 5 or so pike and the rest were walleye to numerous to count. It seemed like another one of them "walleyed' lakes.
The big pike we hooked were right off the last point on the west side before heading into the narrows and the far northwest part of the lake. Pretty good beach there not hard to spot.
