I fished Lakota Lake by myself Wednesday, 4/13.  This lake requires two to fish but my partner backed out and I was left with the bill!  (He’s still my friend though.)  The morning began with strong winds, cloudy and threatening rain.  There is a pretty good launch area and an adjacent area to park.  The lake is huge by PWF standards and is not really able to be fished properly in a day, in my opinion. I began throwing a small bluegill spinnerbait and had almost no success, so I tied on a white chatterbait with a pumkin auger tail and began catching.  That bait seems to work well with rainy and blustery weather.  I also stumbled on to some crappie and spent a considerable part of the day with them.  White roadrunner worked for the crappie, and stick baits were the best thing for bass after the wind began to settle down.  I also caught bass on Pop R, square bill and grubtail on ¼ oz wide-gap head.  Totals:  44 LMB with 4 just barely under 4 lbs; 29 crappie to 15”.

This is a beautiful, wild and remote property.  I will definitely be back!
