Clear lake help / recommendation needed

I'm booking my first trip to clear lake in June and was hoping for some basic information. I'm wanting to stay around lakeport and looked into Skylark but they're booked. Does anyone have another recommendation for that end of the lake? I'm open to a cabin/cottage as well. Also, I'm wanting to to fi...

Re: Sun protection face covers and gloves

I always ware a UPF breathable long sleve, hat, glasses and a buff/mask, as well as spf spray. The reflection off the water is nothing to take lightly.

You can always find a good deal on E bay. I've purchased a lot of UPF shirts off there and am very pleased.

Best summer month for clear lake?...

I am planning a trip to clear lake this summer for my "bachelor party." No partying involved, but I would like to time it with a good top water bite.

Which month would you historically say would be best for frogging/topwater? June, July or August?

I appreciate the help.

Minimal hyacinth from what I have seen.

There is a few areas with grass/primrose to flip/punch.

I was in hog a few weeks ago. The visibility was 6" at best. It was a waste of time for me. It may have cleared up, especially towards the end but I'm not sure.
