Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. Species logged across Hubbard County include walleye, northern pike, black crappie and bluegill. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. Read Tepee Lakes before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Tackle & Baits

  Ownership and access are not documented in what we hold. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Bank access can be seasonal on ground like this. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. If the gate is shut, Island Lake at 0.6 miles is the nearest alternative. Where Tepee Lakes is concerned, a local answer beats a written one.
