• Where to Fish on Lake Rebecca

  No chart reached our records; the first cast is your sounding. 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. Species logged across Wright County include largemouth bass, bluegill, black crappie, yellow perch and common carp. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. The shape of Lake Rebecca decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  On the long-term average, July reads 71°F and January reads 11°F. Cold locks it up for a good stretch each year. Ice fishing carries the winter, and the water opens about early April. Climate averages put the opening at about early April and the closing near late November. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. That is the shape of the year on Lake Rebecca.
