Lake Profiles
Lake Springfield, Sangamon County
But largemouth bass get most of the hype, and deservedly so. During 49 sanctioned fishing tournaments held on Lake Springfield in 2020, dozens of largemouths topping the 5-pound mark were weighed in.
Plum Lake, Vilas County
Plum Lake may cover more than 1,000 acres, but it’s irregular shape, multiple islands and abundance of structure makes Plum a great choice on windy days.
St. Lawrence River, St. Lawrence County
And the St. Lawrence is not all about bass. Depending on the location and timing, species like northern pike, muskellunge and especially walleyes are all highly sought after in trophy caliber size and numbers.
Gun Lake, Aitkin County
Gun long has been known as a consistent crappie producer, and it’s no secret that the majority of people fishing it do so for crappies, especially during the ice-fishing season.
