    Bucket list lake?

    What lake (that you haven't fished already) do you want to fish the most before you die? Mine is Lake Fork.

    Well, you certainly have the appropriate username for that one.

    There's a whole bass fishing rabbit hole to go down on the upper reaches of that river, when you consider all the every day, year-round topwater smallmouth opportunities there, too.

    I've always wanted to fish a far norther lake for giant smallmouth and muskies. I would love to catch a 20 lb. fish with a mouth like an alligator.
    Don't worry Ma'am....

    LSC
    World class in Both Musky and SM. And 20 pounds for a Musky is small

    It ain't as automatic as some people think. I've been there twice and blanked both times. First time was a full moon first weekend in April. I never knew that so many boats could be on a lake. Boats were literally bow to prop going around pitching to beds. My son said it looked like a bass boat ride at the state fair.
    Second time we had a monster cold front blow through giving us a 20° temperature drop and a 20mph wind. It's also a very tough lake to get around on without killing your boat. I knocked my trolling motor off the mount and had it cockamamie on the deck until I got back to the rental.

    The best Peacock bass fishing lake in Brazil. Isn't that where they catch 'em?

    Don't really need to when you got Traverse Bay so close to home, or one of the Northern Ontario lakes like Rainy or Lake of the Woods.

    I have been fortunate enough to fish most of the big name waters from Florida, Texas, Mexico and the northern states but would like to fish the California Delta and Paradise Lake Cuba.

    Same for me. I just love the look of the lake. Mississippi River frogging would be another. St Clair is my holy grail, but I’ve checked that off the bucket list 50 times. Lol
