As I recall, some of those sunnies were pretty nice sized.  I always wanted to take a canoe out there and hit around that island but that never happened, youre talking about the pond to the north of the campground across from that bike park or you talking the one to the south?

It does get winter kill. Sometimes when water levels are low, it can drain in a hurry. Couple of times some RVs hooked up to it and ran a pump out of it, they did get a fine, but it wiped out a big ch

the one to the south of the camp ground, directly across from the school of environmental studies. It actually has a name, believe it or not, lebanon calls it "wheaton pond".

Never fished that one, only the one north of the camp ground, the one with the island on it.  That one seemed like it could get deep in the middle, used to get big bass and a bunch of green sunnies right off Johnny Cake.  Nobody ever fishes those lakes/ponds.  Further down Johnny cake past McAndrews theres a larger pond on the west side of Johnny Cake by a church, my brother has a 11.5" Gill on the wall from that pond.  Riding the bike home with a 11.5" gill in a kemps ice cream pal... oh those were the days, now back to work...

Couple of times some RVs hooked up to it and ran a pump out of it, they did get a fine, but it wiped out a big chunk of the water that was in it. Wheaton used to be a holding pond for walleyes for the DNR. I know one guy who lives around there was trying to illegally stock it again by himself.

      Bait

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.

      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.

      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
