Wawasee/Tippecanoe and surrounding lakes

[T-Wick]

Hey guys

A few friends and I are planning a trip to waterloo in a few weeks (march 23-27). We're planning on fishing wawasee and tippecanoe, but we're open to other lakes as well. I know there is a tournament on wawasee the 25th, so we'll probably only fish it either the 23rd or 27th. Anyway, could anyone give some pointers on what the fishing is like around that time? Any local hotspots we could try out? We've had ice on the lakes here (wisconsin) since mid november. We're all going insane and need to catch some fish!

ANY info would be much appreciated!! Thanks!

You should IM cubswin and he should be able to give you some info. Joe lives in Wabash which is just south of there

Our ice is off here in the souther part. I'm assuming theirs is too.

I used to fish those lakes a lot when I lived in Indiana. Those are two of my favorite lakes, even though they get a lot of pressure. I usually never went up there in March though, normally fished there beginning in April. I'd guess the ice is gone, but not sure. I know it was fairly warm up there a week or so ago. It may be a bit early to fish some of the flats or up in the channels. But if they get some warm weather, some fish will start moving into the shallow water. I'd start out by fishing some deeper water near breaklines, then as the day warms up(if it does warm up ) move onto the edge of the flats. Small cranks, worms and jigs were always the best bet for me up there. Good luck.

Good advice to Im Cubswin...he should have a lot more info than I can offer. I've not been up there in three years or more.
