Three lakes all different in a chain in Central Minnesota. Lake 1 is in the north and lake 3 is in the south. Every lake is different in many ways.

Lake #1 (The northern lake)

100 acres, shallow 20ft and less. Dark water, coon tail and cabbage only growing in three feet and less. Two points with rocks on them, and two marsh areas. A large creek enters the chain here. Forage perch and suckers.

Lake #2 (The middle lake)

500 acres, 50 feet deep, visabiltiy to 6 feet, weedline at 8ft around the whole thing, two rock reefs in the middle with mixed cabbage around them, one marsh area in the north end, one steep sharp breaking south shoreline. Forage, perch, tullibee and suckers

Lake #3(Southern most lake)

2000 acres and 90ft deep, very clear, 15ft of visabiltiy. Weedlines only on the northern side and down to 11 feet. Three rock reefs in the middle of the lake with no weeds, east shoreline is sandy, south shoreline is rocky and steep, west shoreline has lots of points and a few back bays with marshy areas. Forage is suckers, tullebee and perch.

This is in Central Minnesota, trolling is legal.

***Its early September, water temp 60 degrees and winds are calm, and its sunny.

1) Where would you start fishing?

2) With what presentation?

This is my prime time! Top water is pretty much what you will find me fishing from 65 degrees down to 50 degrees...

I would be focusing on the breaklines....positioning the boat in approx. 18 ft to start and firing off the Canada side as well as the US side. If this didn't produce I'd go shallow....Lake 2 & 3....1 just doesn't do it for me.
