No cloud to trap the day's warmth tonight, with a working NW breeze and pressure sitting still. Activity on Mullen Lake should centre on the shaded margin through bright spells. If you must go, go in the night. One good spot fished well beats five fished quickly. The pre-winter feed makes autumn days generous.

Mullen Lake is listed under Timiskaming District, Ontario. What surrounds it is mixed forest. It measures about 32 hectares, which is a comfortable size for bank fishing. Around 3.6 km of margin, front to back. Nearest town is Englehart, 92 km off. It is 120 km to Greater Sudbury, the nearest city. One jurisdiction covers this water end to end.
No depth figure appears in our records, so the bank has to tell you. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Reported across Timiskaming District: brook trout, northern pike, yellow perch and Iowa darter. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Work Mullen Lake in sections rather than trying to cover it.
Temperature averages peak at 17°C in July and bottom out at -16°C in January. A full turn of seasons, with the strongest sport on either side of summer. Once it clears, about late April, the fishing comes on quickly. The season between ice runs from about late April to mid November. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. That is the shape of the year on Mullen Lake.
Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. This is a natural basin, not a dammed one. Public data shows nothing built here, so treat the whole approach as informal. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Provincial rules still apply whatever the bank status. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. The nearest alternative is Herron Lake, 0.9 km out. Nothing on Mullen Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
