Drove up to a lake that I have fished since the 60's. Island Lake. It is a bucket list deal I wanted to do. No boat, just off shore. Now If I went in May or June I would have got some walleyes but I knew this time of the year the smallmouth would be a good bet. So I took my wife and grandson with me and we had some fun. We fished the boat landing on the east side past the Sportsman's Club. Caught some bass with a nice one my grandson got. All fish were released. good luck.
