Where is that located John? Sounds familiar
Boy John it might be faster to go through Wisconsin. You sure do love to fish to drive that far for a mess of crappie.

JUST CANT HELP MYSELF!!!
may not go there , but I am always looking for new waters and new challenges.
thinking of heading down to erie and fishing the big walleye again, and if the wind comes up I am going to hit the docks someplace for crappie.
I hear they get some real good ones if you can find them.
John, I used to travel through Crystal Falls on my way to Ironwood. If you go there and choose the Michigan route versus going up through Illinois and Wisconsin ( I did this route and never saved any time so always chose Michigan) you can shave about 45 minutes off your time by taking 69 just before Bark River. 69 will be just a 2 lane paved road and not much to see along the way, but it brings you right in to Crystal Falls and right by Crystal Bait ( (906) 875-4434) I'd call Crystal Bait and ask them what they can tell you about crappie........I do know by talking to a couple of friends who fished Lake Michigamme that they had success with bluegill, walleye and pike.
Rich its basically northwest of Iron Mountain and straight east of Iron RiverQuote:

It's catch and release only on bass due to a rusty crayfish problem but we also caught a nice mess of decent perch. No houses or cottages on the lake, just a few buildings belonging to the state park.
