About 1 week until the Nest trip, any suggestions?

[Guest]

Well we'll be headed to Nest on Fathers day weekend. I'm really pumped for a week of relaxation. I have a few last minute questions.

What stage are the fish in?
Any idea of the water temperature?
How clear is the lake and what line size would you recommend?
I assume the lake level is back up to normal?
Any bait recommendations for bass, walleye and panfish?
Can you navigate from Nest to Green by boat?
Any other beneficial information?

Thanks a bunch

GRR....
Nest Lake water level seems to be about normal to me! weeds are starting to develop in the bays....I don't know what the temp is
To answer one of your questions is NO you can't navigate from Nest to Green all there is a spill way going into green with a big drop!

I plan on fishing it next week so I can give you a better report then. Maybe someone else has a fishing report from Nest!

What resort are you staying at?

Thanks for all the info. We'll be staying at the Willow Bay Resort. I hoping I can buy a map of the lake in the area. If you know a place I can buy one let me know. I hope the water warm. Kids will be bummed if it's too cold for swimming.

Thanks Again

GRR--

Check out Jim W's post on Green lake smallies. There is some great info there on the bite which will apply to Nest. I had a great night with the smallies on Nest a week ago Thursday. We boated 13 between 1 1/2 and 4 1/2 pounds (all realesed of course). The fish were on the rocks in 6'-9' of water. The walleye were hitting on the lake also. Saw a lot of boats on the SW side of the last island to the west. What resort are you staying at? You may want to call and inquire on any damage that may have happened due to the tornado/winds that hit the area. I know some of the Nest resorts were affected. Good luck fishing!!!!
