Can anyone share a couple of sunfish spots near daisy bay?  On the lake this week and the kids want to catch some sunnies.

Thanks

Depending on your definition of (near)  haha, but I have had great success fishing the inside weed edge up in niles bay lot of keeper fish.  If you want to catch a million perch and again not really near you but evertts bay out in front of the golf course there a million perch that is where I take my nieces.  But yeah Vermilion I love it to death but I wish there were a little more abundance of panfish.  Not sure if your plans include a haul up to Trout but that is a great sunfish fishery I love it up there a lot of 1 pound and a little over fish up there.

Not real close but a boat ride to wolf bay around the dam should have some sunnies & gills to keep the kids busy. West end has many more spots than you will find on the east end

​Just the back shallow bays for pannies near lily pads? Never tried for them up there.

I want to take a few days off and go camping. Maybe try for Pike and pannies in addition to walleyes, lakers and bass.

 

Thanks in Adv.

​That's always my recipe. I don't know the Daisy Bay area but look for shallow areas near emerging rocks or near shade cover. I catch endless panfish off of my dock all summer long but it's a little rude to anchor next to someone's dock to fish. There is a rockpile that we fish where we just pull up in the boat, pull out lawn chairs, and fish for pannies from the rocks.

​I have had my best luck in the north arm what I have done in the best is after June I find the smaller fish in 4-6 feet of water adjacent to deeper water, once I find them I look for any kind of drop off, change in bottom, or weeds.  I try to concetrate in 8-12 feet, I anchor right where I caught the smaller fish and cast out.  Just a trick still get little ones but less and less.  But like I said there are some nice gillies up there.
