Had my Dad up fishing this weekend. After spending a day on Sand with NO musky action (strange murky water/algae bloom going on over there), we decided to go to the flowage so we could actually catch something.
Went there on sunday (6/14), and started fishing crappies. We caught A LOT of crappies, most of them being nice. Also caught some bluegills, most of them being pigs too. Also caught a few perch, three walleyes at about 15 inches each, some northerns, and a couple bass. Just about everything was caught near the deeper edges of weeds in about 8 feet of water. The bluegills came on waxies under a bobber and the crappies came on that as well as (mostly) a smaller twister tail and jig head.
We fished the same area for musy for a little while, and caught a few northerns. Biggest was about 30 inches.
I tried a brush pile I caught gills and crappies on a couple weeks ago, and there was nothing there. Still lots of people fishing shallow - not sure how much they were catching.
