  Here's
what the experts have to say about fishing on Ball Club Lake.
"Renowned as an excellent panfish lake, Big Ball Club also provides
some nice northern pike, hefty walleye and big largemouth bass.
The lake has a reputation for producing crappies in the 1-1/2 to 2 pound
range and  bluegills
in the 1 to 1-1/2 pound range. Trophy walleye are available with
the average fishing going 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pounds. They are usually
caught by working the various points and other walleye structure,
including the sandbars on the south end of the lake. Try working
off
the large point (Cook's Point); the Ball Club River outlet; and the
creek on the southeast shoreline. Action heats up in June with
minnows being the preferred bait earlier and leeches later in the
summer. Northern fishing can yield some 3-1/2 to 20 pound-plus
fish with an occasional muskie. Shoreline dropoffs along the
lake's cattails are productive as are the weedbeds near the sandbars on
the south end. For largemouth bass and panfish, try working the
bulrushes and weedbeds. Ball Club's sandy bottom and deep, cold
water provides excellent tasting fish year round."

Last Update:
June 27, 2008
Water temperature on the
lake has finally sustained in the 60s, and the fishing catch has
greatly improved over previous weeks. Fishing for all
species is great right now. Crappies and Blue Gills are
moving in shallow for spawn. Walleye and Northern Pike are
relating to minnow forage in the warmer shallows. Lake
levels are good due to more normal amounts of precipitation last
winter and this spring. Weed lines are just developing and
holding most of the Perch; this bite is producing catch limits.
