• Where to Fish on Round Lake

  Depth is unmeasured here, so let the shoreline guide you. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. County-wide records name smallmouth bass, Atlantic whitefish, yellow perch, chain pickerel and brown bullhead. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. Read Round Lake before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Where the road in crosses private land, ask first. Close seasons apply to some species and not others. For a change of water, Long Lake is 0.8 km distant. Nothing on Round Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
