• Where to Fish on Kizers Little Lake

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. The old creek line under the surface is the feature worth finding. Standing timber shows when the level drops, and fish sit against it. Records held for Lackawanna County cover brown trout, bluegill, black crappie, largemouth bass and brown bullhead. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. On Kizers Little Lake the obvious spot is not always the productive one.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 67°F at the top of summer and 21°F at the bottom of winter. Winter shuts the surface down for months. The lid arrives early and lasts until roughly early April. Expect the water usable from around early April until roughly mid December. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. The season on Kizers Little Lake follows the weather closely.

• Tackle & Baits

  The paperwork position is blank for this one. No made access is recorded, so a short walk in is the likely arrangement. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Where access is informal, keep it that way by behaving. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Kizer Pond, 0.6 miles away, makes the obvious fallback. The position on Kizers Little Lake is worth confirming on the day.
