Lake Laura Fishing Guide, Hennepin County, Minnesota

• Overview

  Look for Lake Laura in Hennepin County, Minnesota. The surface lies 886 feet up. Around 35 acres of surface means several distinct areas to work. The full circuit measures close to 1.4 miles on foot. Ground here is low by Minnesota standards. Dayton lies 2.2 miles from the water. Beyond it, Rogers at 2.5 miles and Ramsey at 4.6 miles. A border sits close enough to be relevant to the paperwork.

• Where to Fish on Lake Laura

  We hold no depth figure for this one. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Records held for Hennepin County cover bluegill, common carp and largemouth bass. County records show the wider picture rather than this one place. Read Lake Laura for ten minutes before the first cast goes out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate records put July near 72°F and January near 11°F. Winter puts a hard lid on this one. Hard cover is dependable here; it goes around early April. In an average year the thaw lands around early April and the freeze near late November. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. That is the shape of the year on Lake Laura.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. No dam controls it, and the level follows the season. The nearest car park we can see is half a mile out, so expect a walk with your gear. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. Diamond Lake, 0.8 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. Treat access at Lake Laura as something to verify.
