    Clear Lake, IA

    Will be getting up to Clear Lake here in a few weeks. I am wondering if there is anybody on here that has been up there and what sort of things should I expect to see. Water clarity, vegetation, bottom composition, lake traffic, launch ramp conditions, etc. or any other things that may help to prepare ahead of time.

    Flip/pitch docks and flip and frog the reeds. That's about all there is to do up there. You might not get a ton of bites but you'll have a good chance at some big fish. McIntosh Woods is the best ramp on the lake IMO.

    Does this lake get heavy/thick vegetation this time of year?
