Quarry Lake Fishing near Gibraltar, Michigan

• Overview

  Wayne County, Michigan, is where Quarry Lake sits. It sits at 584 feet above sea level. Surface area runs to about 3 acres — small enough to read in one session.

The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Quarry Lake

  Without a survey to go on, judge depth from how the bank falls away. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Reported across Wayne County: common carp, goldfish, bluegill, yellow perch and walleye. County data is a starting point rather than a guarantee. Quarry Lake fishes better once you know its edges.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The year swings from about 24°F in January to roughly 72°F in July. Winter closes the water for a while, and the reopening is worth catching. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around late March. Average temperatures cross freezing around late March in spring and again near late December in autumn. The open run goes from the thaw to the freeze, and April through October covers most of it. On Quarry Lake that shapes the whole year.
