Wintergreen Lake in Warren County: How and When to Fish It

• Overview

  You will find Wintergreen Lake in Warren County, New York. The water sits 1,099 feet up. It measures about 75 acres, which is a comfortable size for bank fishing. There is roughly 1.5 miles of shoreline here, which is a short walk end to end. Size puts it in the front rank of our Warren County list. Start from Ticonderoga, 9.4 miles down the road. Crown Point is 15 miles away, with Whitehall at 16 miles. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Wintergreen Lake

  Depth is unmeasured here, so let the shoreline guide you. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. Fish documented in Warren County include brown trout, brook trout and pumpkinseed. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. On Wintergreen Lake the first feature you find is usually worth a session.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from 17°F in January up to 67°F in July. Cold locks it up for a good stretch each year. Ice is part of the season here, ending near mid April. Averages place the thaw at mid April and the freeze at early December. The open run goes from the thaw to the freeze, and April through October covers most of it. On Wintergreen Lake that shapes the whole year.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. Nothing in the way of made access shows up nearby: no ramp, no car park, no path. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Season dates differ by species, so read the table. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Swede Pond at 1.5 miles is the sensible second choice. The position on Wintergreen Lake is worth confirming on the day.
