The fishing is okay and it's good for an evening canoe ride. It's nice to look out over when eating dinner or having morning coffee. Give me the lakes region everyday and twice on Sunday! Oh, ya..I'll be up next week!

Please don't compare and downgrade our beautiful Lake Winnipesaukee to those other Southern Lakes. There is no comparison. Most all are man made with red clay or some other mucky bottom. If you want to compare try Lake Tahoe for starters. Lake Tahoe has been described as the Lake Winni of the West. I have traveled to Lake Tahoe. It is beautiful. But I would not want to live there and boat there. Now if you want to start a new conversation please discuss the lakes out West like Lake Tahoe. That to me would be more informative.
