Tripp Lake Fishing Guide, Hubbard County, Minnesota

  Tripp Lake lies in Hubbard County, in Minnesota. The bank is 1,407 feet above sea level. Around 27 acres of surface means several distinct areas to work. It is one of the smaller waters we list in Hubbard County. Some 20 miles away sits Park Rapids, the nearest settlement. Fargo is the closest city, 102 miles away. Local rules may differ a few miles either side of here.

• Where to Fish on Tripp Lake

  Depth remains unrecorded, so treat the first session as a survey. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Records held for Hubbard County cover walleye, northern pike, black crappie, bluegill and largemouth bass. The county list is broader than any single water. The near bank of Tripp Lake is often the one people ignore.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warm month here averages 68°F; the cold one sits at 5°F. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. Ice is part of the season here, ending near mid April. The water is typically free of ice between mid April and late November. Look to early summer and the first cool weeks of autumn. Time your trip to Tripp Lake by conditions rather than dates.

• Tackle & Baits

  We have no record of the rules that apply on this bank. The map shows no ramp or car park nearby, so this is a walk-in water. 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. Where tickets apply, they are sold in the nearest town rather than on the bank. Should this one be busy, Wegwos Lake is 0.7 miles off. Confirm access to Tripp Lake locally before you travel.
