Are those lake around Orr? The Orr Muni is the old church looking building just before you get into town? I remember seeing a strange building converted into a tavern on our way to Canada. We decided to try the states this year and the guy Leif Gunderson comes to the Boat show in St. Louis and have talked to him a couple of times. We thought we could save some money and hopfully bring home a couple more fish.
I do remember stopping in Madison WS to swap out a rental van because we hit a deer the mosquitos there were horrible. It was like a swarm but that was in the evening. The owner of the resort said it would be unlikely to catch any crappie then but you make it sound a little hopefull. If we can catch some nice smallies and walleys I think we will be happy.
