Aside from the fact they're only open Fri-Sunday and you have to confirm a spot for your boat, what are the top 2-3 tips you'd recommend?
Replies appreciated.
Best tip is to go to Fork.

As mentioned , be careful at the ramp , we have seen at least four incidents where boats have slipped off their trailers .

You need to know a professional once dominated this little body of water while drinking cheap vodka.

It was my first time today. I struggled, just caught 4 from 2-3 pounds. I was told to fish shallow and fish the creek end. I don't know if it was an off day or if it was me. I didn't go very far up the creek end because it looked like they were having a boat show up there. Mostly soft plastics.

I would rather catch fewer than deal with the crowd. Sorry, if I wanted to be around that many people, I would go to a mall.

While the limit is 100 boats a day there aren't that many boats on Squaw each day and the areas I fish don't have much pressure. This lake is close to 3,000 acres. There are plenty of places to fish where you won't have anyone around you unless you like going to a mall and following the crowds.

You need to know a professional once dominated this little body of water while drinking cheap vodka. You left out 2 words,Jersey. "You need to know a professional WAS once dominated BY this little body of water while drinking cheap vodka." Fixed it for you.
