I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

Good afternoon, all

Am new here.....have lurked for awhile......   8)

Am going north to Walhalla in August, staying on Long Lake there.....am looking for a topo map of the lake.......any ideas?       I found one on MDNR site, but it is not very detailed...was looking for something a bit better....any input is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Welcome!
Are you talking about just north of 10 and west of Branch? If so, I've never seen much of a map at all but there's some brutes in there. Try the sharp drops on the east side......and maybe run up to Gun or Ford also.
Good luck!
Look past what they want you to see.

jigmaster

yep, that is the lake.   right next to emerson lake

map on MDNR shows sharp drops along east and west sides......and deep water holes at south end

is the lake clear/weedy?

thanks for the imput!

regards

 It's been a while since I fished it, but I THINK I remember sand drops on the west side and sharp breaks with weeds on the break to the east side. Seems like the water was pretty clear.
We always caught our fish on the east side, about in the middle of the lake. Seems like I remember the "ramp" was kinda interesting too. West side to the north I think.
 

Gun.....Ford.....(Round Lake has more mosquitoes per sqare inch than anywhere on the planet)

Good Luck!
Look past what they want you to see.

Good morning....leaving for Walhalla in a few days......getting the tacklebox together   :)

There is a small lake just north called "Gooseneck lake"......not very developed, tough to access, and I heard that it has some pigs in it, too......am planning to check that out, for sure

Will post results when I get home

any other words of advice for Long Lake in the summer?

thanks in advance

JM
