Aninnan Lake Fishing near Nashville, Wisconsin

• Overview

  Aninnan Lake falls in Langlade County, part of Wisconsin. It sits at 1,519 feet above sea level. Roughly 39 acres: a morning covers one end, an afternoon the other. The edge runs 1.1 miles or so, easy to work in an afternoon. Nashville is the closest place, 7.8 miles off. Then Crandon, 13 miles, and Antigo, 19 miles. A county boundary sits nearby, which can matter for local access rules.

• Where to Fish on Aninnan Lake

  Open data we checked carries no depth for this water. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Langlade County records list brown trout, rainbow trout, largemouth bass and bluegill among the fish reported. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Read Aninnan Lake before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Typical July readings run about 66°F; by January the average is down near 10°F. Winter puts a hard lid on this one. Look for the thaw near mid April; the fishing lifts straight after. Open water usually runs from mid April until about late November. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. That shapes the year on Aninnan Lake.

• Tackle & Baits

  Public data does not answer the access question here. It formed naturally, so levels move with rainfall rather than with a gate. There is no mapped parking or launch nearby, which keeps numbers down. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Rules for this water may differ from the county norm. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. Perch Lake sits 0.3 miles off and takes the overflow.
