Beverly Lake Fishing Guide, Somerset County, Pennsylvania

• Overview

  The Somerset County entry here is Beverly Lake, in Pennsylvania. The water sits 1,512 feet up. At 3 acres it is the sort of place you fish for an evening rather than a day. It is a small entry by Somerset County standards. Jerome lies 1.9 miles from the water. It is 54 miles to Pittsburgh, the nearest city. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Beverly Lake

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Inflow corners move water, and moving water gathers fish. Public occurrence data for Somerset County names brown trout, walleye and brook trout. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. Read Beverly Lake before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 25°F and July at about 69°F, the water has a wide range to work through. The year turns gently, without extremes at either end. Hard water here is never dependable, so check for yourself before stepping out. Late winter often fishes better here than midsummer does. That shapes the year on Beverly Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. Nothing formal is recorded here: no ramp, no car park, no marked path. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Look for a notice board at the entrance. Keep proof of licence with you rather than in the car. Failing this one, try Dalton Run Reservoir, 4.3 miles away. Confirm access to Beverly Lake locally before you travel.
