Does anyone know which lakes in the L.P. have the highest density of ski's? I usually fish Sanford and I am pretty sure I remember hearing that it had a very low number. Thinking about getting out this weekend and taking my brother who is a newbie. Trying to stay fairly close to home, live in Freeland. Ovid be the best bet? Thanks in advance

Fished Budd a few times and had a few follows but that is about it. Would you do Budd over Ovid?

Your best chances at seeing a muskie given the weather this weekend are:
1. Budd
2. Ovid
3. Tittabawassee from Sanford to Dow
4. Smallwood
5. Secord
6. Wixom
7. Sanford

Your best chance at catching one might be more like:
1. Ovid
2. Titt
3. Smallwood
4. Secord
5. Budd
6. Wixom
7. Sanford

No guarantees here, just my guesses!

Thanks Duke,

Never fished the Titt from the dam at Sanford down. Is the access at the park by the Sanford dam the only one? Is it navigable with a 14 foot boat with a 15 horse??? Wouldn't mind being able to kill some time catching smallies…….

Its too shallow in some long stretches between Sanford & Dow, so you can't run your outboard up and down the whole thing. But there is also another boat ramp right by the golf course off Currie Parkway in Midland. And its not that the river is just full of muskies, but more like the ones there are concentrated in the few holes, including those downstream of Dow Dam too.
