• Where to Fish on Frog Lake

  No chart reached our records; the first cast is your sounding. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. County-wide records name rainbow trout, cutthroat trout, Coho salmon, yellow perch and sockeye salmon. Several of these carry legal protection or closed seasons; the rulebook comes before the rod. Frog Lake repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from 21°F in December up to 55°F in July. Spring and autumn carry the fishing; summer and winter test it. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around early May. Open water usually runs from early May until about mid November. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Frog Lake.

• Tackle & Baits
