The best advice I could give anyone that has never fished the flowage is to hire a guide even for a half day trip and you could save yourself a lot of time and money. There are some very good guides that fish the flowage and if you ask around at some of the tackle stores they can help find one based on what type of fishing you would like to do. Right now you should be able to find pan fish in deeper cribs and brush and using small jigs and plastic baits you can catch everything from walleyes to crappies on the same brush piles. If your looking to fish for muskies right now I would spend my time fishing any of the bars fishing early and late in the day. You can locate these bars using any good map of the flowage. There are no real secrets just try to fish a small area and learn it well and then stick with the places that you see fish. Hope this helps and good luck.
