Austin Lake (Portage)

[Killin' It]

Does anyone know someone that has a place on Austin lake.

I am trying to get permison to fish this lake from the bank for carp in the spring. The lake has been home to some of the biggest carp caught in michigan and I am looking to land a 40+ pound fish this spring.

If you have any leads or could put in a great word for me it would mean alot.

All fishing is catch and release

I can trade:

Labor

Salmon/steelhead or trout fillet

Fishing trips on the big lake

My wife's good cooking

I know it is a shot in the dark, but the next step is going door to door.

I don't mean to be Mr. Obvious here, but there is a public access site, so I guess we all have a "place" there.

There is a beach and an outhouse at the public boat launch.

I can attest to the monster carp there. Witnessed a 48.16 get shot there a few summers back. I hope you have luck finding a place.

Most of the spots on Public acess are choked with weeds and unfishable.

The SE side of the lake has a sand bottom and the area I would like to be able to fish.
