I would agree with that remember there are some reefs on the lake, I cant tell you where but do check with the locals. The best thing about winne is the average depth is only twice that of your bathtub. dont wait too long the alge bloom sucks in the summer!

This would be less than 3 hours from you I am happy to come out and crew chief for the testing
I actually live in New Lenox, IL. I tow up to White Lake, MI all the time which is just north of Muskegon. I've been on both White Lake and Muskegon and chop on both these lakes is common, with the wind off of Lake Michigan. Then if you do hit a nice day you can run on the Big Lake. You can make White Lake in less than 3.5 hours and Muskegon just over 3. White Lake also has one of the nicest ramps I've ever been to, with a nice big lot that never closes and it lit up!
