Anyone have any info on this lake? I have a buddy with a cabin out there and wondered if it was worthy of a weekend trip. I also heard there are walleye as well. Any info would be appreciated

Thanks

My dad loved Brookville for basses when he lived in ohia. There are supposed to be muskies there, but I've never gone.

Google found these for ya:

People catch plenty of muskie there. They are also pretty quiet about it. Walleye are targeted pretty heavily.

Thanks for the info guys. I guess all a guy can do is get out there and try it. Should make for a good weekend anyways.
Take care

supposedly the remaining muskie fingerlings are dumped there from OH. Does not make much sense.

Perhaps the 'Buckeye Armada' sails there on weekends, too? m

Dumping fingerlings anywhere that doesn't have an insane amount of cover is feeding bass and gar.
