Forest Lake - Lake 1

[Sy]

I am planning on trying to track down some walleyes on Forest Lake this weekend and was wondering if anyone has a good starting point? I will be walking and did not want to try and cover the whole lake!

After looking at the lake map, I wanted to try Lake 1 and was thinking about some of the structure on the North part of lake 1. Anyone tried this area? Also, what about some of the humps straight out of the access on Lake 1?

I moved to Forest Lake about a year ago and would love to find some fish on a lake so close to my house so any hints would be appreciated!

SY,
I have fished Forest quite a bit and the north half of one is a good start. There are some inside turns and points you need to focus on. Better get out soon because of the big fishing contest coming up. Lake will take a few days to calm down.

Thanks for the response. Have you been out lately? I was wondering if anyone was driving out at all. I do not like to be the leader in that area so I was thinking I might just hop on the ice at the access and drive down along the shoreline in that direction. I guess I will see what it looks like when I get there. It makes me a little more nervous because of the ice problems they had on lake one last year. Also, I am planning on getting out this weekend so I will be well ahead of the contest.

Thanks again.
