				| Anyone have some info on Lake Hayward? My girlfriends parents have a house on the lake there and i've seen some guys out there fishing. I went once for a quick 30 minutes and caught a nice size largemouth, but that was the only time 
 I did some research online and it looks like it has largies, smallies, crappie, and walleye. I have no confirmation on the walleye but i wouldn't be surprised if they were out there.
 
 edit: here's the link

 I know it's an electric motor only lake, but not sure of much else. The one time i went out i was in a 14 foot boat with an electric trolling motor on and fished the shorelines.
 
 Thanks!

				| Good bass lake and a small population of Smallies take your time and fish the whole lake. Never heard of Walleye in there . _________________

				| I am pretty sure there is Pike there too.  Don't think it says it in the anglers guide, but its one of those places... _________________

				| I've never heard of walleye there either but the fishing report makes it seem they are in there. 
 As far as pike that would be interesting f they were. Next time I go out if there's someone fishing I'll have to check with them on both
