Lake Netta near East Bethel: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Anoka County, Minnesota, is where Lake Netta sits. It sits in lake country bush. Around 115 acres of surface means several distinct areas to work. About 2.6 miles of bank, so nothing stays unexplored for long. It is low-lying compared with other Minnesota water we list. Start from East Bethel, 3 miles down the road. Ham Lake is 3.2 miles away, with Andover at 5.5 miles. There is no boundary nearby to worry about.

• Where to Fish on Lake Netta

  We hold no survey for this water; read the slope of the shoreline instead. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Reported across Anoka County: bluegill, common carp, black crappie, largemouth bass and pumpkinseed. Records at county level tell you what is around, not what is stocked here. Take Lake Netta a stretch at a time.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is 11°F to 71°F. Winter shuts the surface down for months. Count the season from break-up, usually early April. The lid tends to go about early April and return around late November. September and October fish steadily right up to the freeze. Plan around that when you fish Lake Netta.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing in our records says who may fish here. Records list it as a natural water body rather than an impoundment. There is no recorded infrastructure here; expect to find your own way in. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Where parking is tight, arriving early solves most problems. The nearest alternative is South Coon Lake, 0.9 miles out. Check the current arrangement for Lake Netta.
