I don't go there as often, but i do know a guy who does go there. He's been catching a few yellow bass but i don't know where...

I have not fished it yet since ice out, but I know they are catching yellows like crazy in the little lake, with the walleye bite not as hot, but it is picking up. Stopped by the Crazy Minnow bait shop last week, and saw a Polaroid of a 46'' muskie caught off the Ventura grade jetty right after ice out. More recently saw another muskie that measured 42'', same spot! If all else fails, give Dan a call at the Crazy Minnow and he will give you the low down.

Walleye, channel cat, yellow bass, carp, pike, muskie, some bass and crappie.  Mostly walleyes and yellow bass.

To anyone they didn't know about it, here's a revised map of the little lake after they finished dredging it last year.
