I visited Clear Lake and Black Creek Lake today. Met some guys bank fishing at Black Creek; they didn't have any luck. They did point out a very large dead bass (8 lbs+)that was apparently stuck in the ice when they got there (see pic below). The lakes are very low, though both can be accessed via kayak. I think the water temp needs to warm up a bit before you see much activity in either of the ones I visited today, and of course we need rain! Clear Lake Black Creek Lake

wow, that is bad. i was thinking about making a trip up there some time soon, but reconsidering now. We need rain badly...that's a shame as the grasslands were one of my favorite places to yak.
thanks for posting the pics

I visited Dan's pond out there today. Its pretty darn low too, maybe an acre of water left. Another very small pond out there that i once fished regularly for the surprisingly decent sized channel cats it had in it was totally dry, not a puddle left.

Black creek has been tough on me every time that I've been there. I caught a few in clear lake last year but nothing big.

Man those lakes look low. I was thinking about making a trip out there but I think I'll wait.

I wish those lakes would come up so we can have another tournament like Tom and Jason put on up there. Lots of limits caught. That was a great time.
