• Where to Fish on Calspar Quarry Pool

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Open biodiversity records for Schoolcraft County list rainbow smelt, alewife and bloater. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. On Calspar Quarry Pool the quiet end is the one worth the extra effort.

  Climate normals give 65°F for July and 16°F for January. Expect a real winter and a strong spring after it. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly mid April.

Calspar Quarry Pool runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public sources are silent on who controls the bank. There is no mapped parking or launch close by, which usually means walking in. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. For a change of water, Cedar Lake is 2.1 miles distant. The position on Calspar Quarry Pool is worth confirming on the day.
