    Lost Grove Lake

    Hey folks, I'm over on the Illinois side, but Lost Grove is only about 2hrs from me. I've heard nothing of this lake outside of a few bigs being caught last year. Anyone have any insight on this from an outsider like me? Feel free to PM if you'd prefer.

    Caught the same fish twice 1 month apart last year she was a bit over 6#s the first time and a bit under 6#s the next. She lives up north in the old lake section. Some 2-3#ers up there also. In the new lake it’s very clear water. Lots of smaller fish. It’s a fun lake to fish. Definitely worth a 2 hours drive.

    Fish there all the time... lots of bass to catch in 2-3lb range, 4-6lbs is realistic possiblity with 7lb+ I have seen them caught.

    Fun Lake to fish, Idle speed only. Lots of standing timber.
