lake victoria

whats the scoop on this lake? I drove past it yesterday and saw approximately 10 clams out there? Whats biting out there and I've had friends tell me they've caught nice slab panfish in the summer? Also is there an access because I saw everyone parked along the road before the bridge. Thanks

The main access on Victoria down on the south end. There is also a small neighborhood access off Knut street....Most will park along Hwy 27 and walk out to the break line. There are two or three permanent shaks...rest use portables, or...if it hits 40 by Wednesday...just put on the sun screen and sit on the ice.

thanks ghotierman whats all in victoria besides sunfish, would I have any luck for northerns with tip up and are the sunfish of any size? is anyone going to be out there is upcoming weekend?

[ghotierman]

a tip up would entice a nice pike or two...Victoria traditionally gives up a lunker walleye or two as well...in the nearly 11 years i've been here, Victoria will put out at least one 8-10 lb walleye each year....not much for numbers...but they're there.

I noticed there were no ATV's out there, is the ice not thick enough or should I just play it by the weather for this weekend.

[ghotierman]

There have been a few taking ATV's out. But usually guys just walk and pull their gear from the road. I notice yesterday it looks like an ATV plowed a path from the SE arm all the way to one of the shaks off hwy 27. Snowmobile or ATV is okay, but I would definately not trust it for regular vehicle.

anyone planning on coming up to victoria or geneva send me a post back, maybe we can meet up and catch some slob panfish.
