Big Lake is one of my more favorite lakes to visit, despite the fact that I have not personally had much luck there. But there are some big bass in this lake and a ton of nice habitat. The lake has a very good reputation for crappie, also.
The launch is rough and sandy in spots so bigger boats beware. Also, watch out for the winds which can get whipping up this long lake.
Check out the south end liily pads for some big bass!
