I've fished Knife a few times for bass, and have done pretty decent. It does get a fair amount pressure, so the fish aren't suicidal. I've done best fishing wood, bullrushes (limited amounts of that), and rocks early in the season. Later, rocks and docks are the ticket.

No real secret techniques needed. Tie up a spinner bait, jig-n-pig (with a Kick-N Craw from Catch-N Tackle as the trailer), and a Texas-rig worm. Put the trolling motor down and go.

Knife is definitely worth a day of bass fishing. Let us know how it works out for you.

I was wondering about Knife too. Is the main lake the best place to fish? What about the stream that goes South? Only fished it once and didn't do very well.

Knife can be a very good lake... And its very possible to pick up the bonus walleye while fishing for bass.. I had a tournament out there a few years ago and boated 5 walleyes over 5 lbs in the day. Wish they would have been bass.... Yes the river going to the south can be good, its worth a check at least. Otherwise stick to the shoreline, there isn't much for off shore structure.. Also the lake has some color to it(stained) upsizing your lure size and using louder lures is a good idea.

the stream goes to the dam not a very good place to fish with my luck. i went up this weekend cought many northerns i didnt do much bass fishing. the water is a greener color right now from the algea and stuff. i think they might have started to spray the pond weeds. fishing the shore is good for bass walleyes ther isnt a spot they are scattered around i fish there alot got uncles with 2 cabins on that lake
