Lasalle Lake was created as a cooling lake. It is 2058 acres. When they created this lake the dirt that was excavated was used to create the dikes that hold this body of water. This is a “perched” lake, 10, 15 or 20 feet above the surrounding ground level. Rocks that create the lakes walls are not found throughout the lake...

Well it’s winter here in the Midwest and most of the lakes are frozen over, but a few are not. So if you get the opportunity to go fishing, what lure would be your primary lure for the day? I would have to say a jerkbait. At this point in year the fish are eating primarily on shad and a jerk bait is a good imitation of a shad dying.
