Blueberry Lake Fishing in Cass County, Minnesota

• Overview

  Set in Cass County, Minnesota, this is Blueberry Lake. Height above sea level is 1,368 feet. About 23 acres of surface, which puts the far bank inside easy sight. For a base, Pequot Lakes sits 25 miles out. Then Crosslake, 25 miles, and Breezy Point, 27 miles. No boundary runs near, so the county rules hold throughout. Conditions change the water more than the calendar does.

• Where to Fish on Blueberry Lake

  Depth is unknown to us, and the shoreline is the better guide. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Species logged across Cass County include largemouth bass, yellow perch, bluegill and walleye. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Blueberry Lake gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 68°F and January near 6°F on the long-run figures. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. Break-up comes around mid April, and the run that follows is short and strong. Climate figures give an open season running mid April to late November. The first weeks of open water and the last are the ones to plan for. At Blueberry Lake the season follows that pattern closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. Mapping shows an empty shoreline: no ramp, no jetty, no marked entry. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Check locally before you travel, because a wasted drive is a long one. Signs go up and come down, so check on the day. Surprise Lake at 0.6 miles is the sensible second choice. Check the position at Blueberry Lake before loading the car.
