150.1It shure is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!BAXTA::TURCOTTE_PAUFri Jul 11 1986 14:1013
    	Dick the fishing is "GREAT" just like the name says.  The main
    fishery that everybody in maine goes for is salmon.  the lake also
    has a good trout,northern pike, white perch (big ones),smallmouth,and
    large mouth bass, and finally pickerel populations.  the lake is
    quite large and deep in some areas.  i recommend that you get a
    debth map at the fish and game or pick up a delorme book and check
    the map for great pond.  caution is highly recommended as there
    are plenty of obstacles (BIG F*&!EN ROCKS) which would and could
    and will ruin your boat or the boat you rent.  i hope this has helped
    you and i really do expect that you will get into some "GREAT" fishing.
    				have a hoppy day

Hey Dick,I just came back from there over the Fourth weekend. Look in
    the Maine notes here and the guys helped me out up there. I stayed
    up at the North end of the Lake and fished the NE weeds. Big Pickeral
    (or Pike) in tall grass. Then I fished in 20+ feet of water and
    BANG, 5+ lb largemouth. The Southern end of the lake looks AWESOME
    for bass,etc....

150.3Just got back thanks for the hints.MERIDN::TUSIAWed Jul 23 1986 16:327
    Well Just got back fished mostly in the north bay area around Snake
    Point. Got a couple of nice bass also a great place to bring kids
    fishing tons of white and yellow perch for them to pull up by the
    ton. I also caught a good size bass off of hoyte island drifting
    around. You are right about the rocks thanks for the warning.
