Little Mirror Lake Fishing in Worcester County, Massachusetts

• Overview

  Massachusetts holds Little Mirror Lake, in Worcester County. It sits in rolling bush. At 8 acres it is the sort of place you fish for an evening rather than a day. Most waters listed here for Worcester County are larger. Devens is the closest place, 1.4 miles off. Lowell sits 17 miles out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. The boundary is close enough to be worth checking before you fish.

• Where to Fish on Little Mirror Lake

  Depth is not on record here, so the bank has to tell you. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. A natural lake fishes on cover, and cover here means weed and timber. County-wide records name bluegill, chain pickerel and largemouth bass. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. Work Little Mirror Lake in sections rather than trying to cover it.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July to average close to 71°F, with January the cold end at about 23°F. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around late March. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about late March until roughly late December. The strong weeks are the first after break-up and the last before the freeze. Plan around that when you fish Little Mirror Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Our records carry no access rule either way. There is a car park half a mile from the bank. Part of this sits inside or beside Newman 2 Land, so read the notices. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Failing this one, try Mirror Lake, 0.1 miles away. Check the current arrangement for Little Mirror Lake.
