• Where to Fish on Little Langford Lake

  Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Open biodiversity records for Gogebic County list bluegill, yellow perch, walleye and largemouth bass. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. On Little Langford Lake a short move beats a long cast.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. Launch at Langford Lake Boat Launch, half a mile from the water. A picnic area is mapped about half a mile away. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Check whether a boat is allowed before you tow one. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Failing this one, try Cornelia Lake, 0.6 miles away. Nothing on Little Langford Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
