My favorite Lake, bite is on now, fished it this past Saturday, kept 25 good crappie, threw back about that many small ones, there are some cabins for rent at Giant City State Park, about a 10 minute drive to Crab Orchard Ramp on spillway road, you need a pass to get on the Lake, $5.00 for a week covers boat and truck, hope this helps
