Beaver Lake near Tweed: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

The big place round here is Kingston, 53 km distant. The line between counties passes nearby, which can change who manages the water.

• Where to Fish on Beaver Lake

  Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Public occurrence data for Lennox and Addington County names pumpkinseed, rock bass, smallmouth bass, bluegill and yellow perch. Some of the species recorded here are protected or tightly regulated, so check what may be targeted before you fish. Beaver Lake gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The seasonal spread runs -9°C to 20°C. Winter puts a hard lid on this one. Ice-out usually falls in mid April, and the weeks after it fish hardest. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about mid April until roughly early December. Right after break-up, and again as the nights sharpen, is when to go. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Beaver Lake.
