| Many
of our lakes have been fishing well. They are a great alternative
to muddy rivers and make for a great family outing for kids.
Vetren anglers also find these still water fisheries to a fun
day out on the water. Our guide trips are available throughout
the year and we guide most of
the lakes listed above out of our drift boats. Contact us to
book a trip or for more info. Our permits for these fisheries
are
either DOW or National Forest Service. Root Pond is a private
lake. |
