Bright moon and an empty sky tonight, with next to no ripple with the glass on the way up. Start the search at Seasted Lake along any hard bottom among the soft. Bank on the evening and treat the rest as bonus. Push the good hours hard and rest through the dead ones. Autumn rewards covering water while the fish roam.

Seasted Lake is a Saint Louis County water, in Minnesota. The bank is 1,345 feet above sea level. It runs to roughly 28 acres — big enough to hold fish away from the bank, small enough to learn. About 1.0 miles of bank, so nothing stays unexplored for long. Nearest place of any size is Eveleth, 14 miles away. Beyond it, Gilbert at 15 miles and Virginia at 18 miles. No county line comes close, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Depth is not on record here, which means reading the ground instead. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. Public occurrence data for Saint Louis County names yellow perch, northern pike and white sucker. Take it as the county picture rather than a promise for this water. The shape of Seasted Lake decides where the fish sit.
Expect July to average close to 66°F, with January the cold end at about 4°F. Hard water is a season in its own right here. After late April the shallows warm and the fish move up. The season between ice runs from about late April to late November. May into June fishes hardest, and September gives a second good stretch before the lid returns. Keep it in mind when planning a trip to Seasted Lake.
Our records carry no access rule either way. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. No built facilities appear in mapping around this water. 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. Some ground is open by custom rather than by right, so tread carefully. For a change of water, Fig Lake is 2.2 miles distant. The position on Seasted Lake is worth confirming on the day.
