Haven't fished it myself.
The lake was stocked with pike and walleye for sure a few years back.
There was perch by the thousands in there before, all about 4" long.

I drove by there this summer - nobody was around, no docks out. Smelt terrible as they have had a real problem with sewage being discharged.

If you're looing for somewhere to fish around there, I'd suggest either Spring or Star.

Default Hasse

Was one of my favorite lakes many years ago. Last year I punched a few holes and dropped the cam down. Zero sign of life, not even a shrimp came up with auger. Oh and the smell.... I packed it all up. I'll not be back to that lake anymore. Personally I'd recommend Star its close to Hasse if looking for trout.

As a child I caught my first ever rainbow there but what a disaster that turned into, sad state of affairs.

We all have probably fished that lake in the past with good memories.


Just curious, if we were in different times, had a gov with $$$ and a will, could this lake be rehabilitated back to it's good ole days?

I don't think so, just a **** hole now, several years of drought with minor snowfalls, the seagulls have claimed it.

Nope. Process of eutrophication. It is the eventual end for many of our lakes, though fertilizer and waste runoff speeds it up by decades. Same for thunder, Cardiff, isle.

I suppose you could dredge, remediate waste systems, ban fertilizer, and restock the fish...all at massive cost and no real guarantee of a good long term outcome because the natural process will continue anyway.
