Lowe Lake, Pennsylvania: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lowe Lake is one of the Susquehanna County listings for Pennsylvania. It sits in rolling bush. With some 50 acres of water, there is room for a boat but no need of one. Roughly 1.2 miles of bank means you can walk to a fresh area when one goes quiet. It ranks high for size among our Susquehanna County listings. Forest City is the closest place, 7.4 miles off. Allentown is the closest city, 79 miles away. A county boundary sits nearby, which can matter for local access rules.

• Where to Fish on Lowe Lake

  No published figure covers depth, so learn it as you fish. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. Fish documented in Susquehanna County include brown trout, brook trout, smallmouth bass, yellow perch and brown bullhead. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. On Lowe Lake that means starting tight and working out.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Between January at about 20°F and July at about 66°F, the water has a wide range to work through. Cold locks it up for a good stretch each year. The freeze runs deep into the year, with break-up near early April. The season between ice runs from about early April to mid December. The middle of summer slows a little, with dawn and dusk carrying it. The season on Lowe Lake rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  The access position is unclear from public sources. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. Parking is not close: half a mile from the bank, and no nearer option is mapped. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. Read any posted signs at the access point rather than assuming. Some stretches are reserved and marked as such on the ground. Lewis Lake at 2.2 miles is the sensible second choice.
