That is a good lake... Fish the rock humps in all depth ranges. Use your side finder and capitalize your efforts. You will loos seome baits if you are fishing in these rocks.... Unless it's a topwater. Be careful where you run, You can rip off the LU... Mostly in the North 1/2.

IF it was me I would fish Grand one day and Long the next........ Both fish great....I like Grand a little better in the fall because it tends to show itself easier...
There is a decent sized bass tournament up there in October....May want to check the dates and plan accordingly so you don't have to deal with a large group...
Also as 21xdc be careful where you run....They draw down Long lake some in the fall so that makes it even tougher on equipment...
Is the Oct tournament put on by alpena bass club
Ranger 619 * Honda 200* Minn Kota* Humminbird *Garmin
Fenwick *Abu Garcia
OCTOBER 14TH AND 15TH.
Thanks for the info
Probably be up that way next week
Ranger 619 * Honda 200* Minn Kota* Humminbird *Garmin
Fenwick *Abu Garcia
And those are the only two dates I have open in oct...don't want to fight a big tournament...any other lakes for lg and smallmouth you recommend? I tried mullet and Burt a couple years ago in the fall and had bad luck with strong wind... coming from Dayton Ohio,
thanks
Traverse city area....Lots of choices there...Charlevoix, East arm, Green and Duck lakes, Walloon, etc etc...If it was me I would fish Walloon then Charlevoix and East bay if the wind was right...
Burt, Mullet or Charlevoix.
Just do long on Saturday and grand on Sunday. You will miss everything.
I as just up on Long in August for the first time and had a great trip. Love that lake. Not many bigger 3.5+lb fish but definitely quantity. Also fished Charlevoix around a Labor Day and crushed'em fishing the deep breaks.
One other option may be Hubbard. Giants in that lake!
