Long on Liberty

Liberty Lake, once a general-season rainbow gold mine, has evolved in to a productive lake for a mix of species from trout to bass, perch and even walleyes and saugeyes (a sauger-walleye hybrid).

The brown trout in this lake are excellent quality.

This year, the state has given anglers even more time to enjoy their Liberty, with extensions at both ends of a season that now runs from March 1-Oct. 31.

The lake has a public access, but no resorts.
