@@robertnestor6770 Look up 63 Meadow Brook Drive in Brookfield on Google maps. The driveway/path to walk in is right next to that house. You can park on the road just past that driveway/path. Walk around the right side until you see the old ramp going into the quarry (about a 1/4 mile around the right side of the lake). If you walk to the left when entering in, that's where most people fish from so that gets lots of pressure but I have caught fish there as well.
