I have been fishing Forest Lake the past few days and had pretty good action. I have been catching northerns on shiners on the weed edge during the day and moving to a bit deeper water (15 feet or so) and catching walleyes in the evening. Anyone else having luck out here?

The only advice I can give you is to try to get away from the crowds. I went out on Forest Saturday and we caught 3 keepers walleyes that were 16, 17, and 22, had two nice ones break off, and released 4 smaller walleyes. One walleye that broke off was somewhere near 26". We are using small shiners on a plain hook.

Have been fishing forest for years , It has always been plain hook ,. I have been getting them on shiners and fatheads . How deep are you fishing ? I have gotten them in 14 to 27 feet. Thanks for the help.

The best luck I have had is on lake 1 and 2. Right now we have been fishing in about 15' of water. There is the big hole on lake two that can be decent and try any structure on lake one you can find: breaks, humps, holes, they all hold fish.
