Lake Co-Be-Ac Fishing in Roscommon County, Michigan

• Overview

  Lake Co-Be-Ac lies in Roscommon County, Michigan. The country here is pine and birch. About 15 acres of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. It is a small entry by Roscommon County standards. Prudenville lies 3.2 miles from the water. Houghton Lake is 4.3 miles and Saint Helen 16 miles. No boundary runs near, so the county rules hold throughout.

• Where to Fish on Lake Co-Be-Ac

  We hold no depth figure for this one. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Fish documented in Roscommon County include rock bass, yellow perch and bluegill. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. Lake Co-Be-Ac responds to conditions more than to tactics.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 68°F, the coldest about 18°F. The year splits cleanly: hard water, then open water. Ice fishing carries the winter, and the water opens about mid April. The season between ice runs from about mid April to early December. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Lake Co-Be-Ac.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. No car park, ramp or path is recorded within easy reach of the shore. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Rules differ from one water to the next round here. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. Should this one be busy, Duck Lake is 3.2 miles off. For Lake Co-Be-Ac in particular, ask before you travel.
