PP, they swim to the lake upstream from ochauchee. I have heard of a few caught, does the lake have a public launch yet?

Gotcha. I lived about 10 minutes from the lake and never heard of any caught. Too be fair I know public access was next to impossible.

Not sure there is really a fishable population of muskie in North Lake. I know some who bass fish the lake and have a home on the lake. They have not encountered any, but have heard of a rare occasional sighting.

Access is in 6" water up stream, it is tough even with breaking trailer and a 15 footer.
