• Where to Fish on Brush Lake

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Fish documented in Luce County include yellow perch, white sucker, walleye and pink salmon. Read it as a county summary, not a water-by-water list. Read Brush Lake before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-term averages put July at about 64°F and January near 16°F. Seasons are distinct, and each one fishes differently. Winter locks it down, and late April brings it back. From about late April to around early December, expect open water on the long-run figures. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. Brush Lake runs to that rhythm year in and year out.
