I have pretty much abandoned the idea of walleye, you can't put a square peg in a round hole.

I definetly want to manage for big BG, regularly catching 8" BG would be a real treat in my areaaa. But, I am not worried about having an oligatrophic lake, I hope I do, but am not counting on it. This lake has no out flow, and the inflow will be ground water and runoff. There is a creek less than 100 yds away. The water flows out of a lake about 5 miles away. This lake is super eutrophic, phosphorous levels of (no kidding) 300 parts/billion. Its also choked with eurasian milfoil.

Since none of us are Bass fisherman per say (although there are a few good SMB lakes near duluth) BIG BG is the order of the day. The lake also seems (right now) to be short on shallow areas, I will try to get the constroction company to leave it that way.

Thanks, any other tips on getting big BG. How many can I expect to harvest per acre/yr?
