I have heard alot of things about Cedar Lake in NemPrauge. Nice crappies and walleyes and muskie. I would appreciate any info on this lake.

We fished it last year a lot, but only open water. Had we put a permanent shack on a lake this year, that would have been the lake. Nice walleyes, LMBass, Crappies & Bgill, some perch thrown in too, but smaller ones. I don't know the lake well as far as hardwater, but if you want open watr info, I'll post it if requested.

I haven't ice fished on this lake for a while but the reports I have heard were sunnies, scattered, but nice size. Head toward the south end of the lake. I have fished muskies on this lake in the summer and usually do pretty good. In late spring, you can catch some pretty nice crappies also. The lake does get pretty busy, so you have to get out early. Haven't had much luck with the walleyes though, I would be interested to hear MnSportsmen's report on open water fishing @ Cedar.

Drew,
As far as open-water repor. It would be last summers info. I don't know if you've fished it much, but I have only touched the opportunities on this lake. I'll tell ya what we did last year & hopefully that'll help. Starting from the public access(Hwy 13) south shore out past the first bay there's some nice bass fishing to be had,( the water was real shallow coming out from the landing last year.had to lift the motor several times late in the year)I'd hit along the docks all the way down to the S.E. end for sure. From the rock piles(by Buoy) back toward the East shore by the point was hot for crappies.We got crappies there, but I know a few were getting wally's there too. Due South of those rocks on that East shore is another point. We hit the end of that(there's a cut-bank there),& did outstanding on the B-gills & sunnies , with some smaller perch. (or , at least my buddy did, with me watching... Virg, you lucky..... ) There's some good N-pike fishing to be had on the West side, IMHO, & the I'd drift or, back troll the main lake for walleyes. The South bay looks very promising too(by the "daypark") & the little cove on the lower west side.As I said, I/we just touched this lakes fishing areas. This is just an "in-a-nutshell" type report. I will definitely be able to tell you more as Spring progresses. Hope it helped! Now it's time to "wet a line"!
