Beverly Lake, Wisconsin: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  The Sawyer County end of Wisconsin holds Beverly Lake. It stands 1,312 feet above sea level. Small at around 18 acres: two anglers spread out cover most of it. On size it sits at the modest end of our Sawyer County list. Little Round Lake sits 13 miles from here and is the nearest stop. The nearest city of size is Saint Paul, 101 miles away. The nearest boundary is well away, so one set of rules covers the water.

• Where to Fish on Beverly Lake

  Depth is not on record here, which means reading the ground instead. Read the surface for the wind lane, then fish the edge of it. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Open biodiversity records for Sawyer County list walleye, brown trout, largemouth bass, muskellunge and northern pike. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. At Beverly Lake the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is 9°F to 67°F. The freeze arrives properly here and holds. The open season starts with the thaw, near enough mid April. Going by climate averages, expect open water from about mid April until roughly late November. The middle of summer slows a little, with dawn and dusk carrying it. On Beverly Lake the same rules apply, with local timing.

• Tackle & Baits

  We hold no note on access for this one. Beverly Lake Wildlife Area takes in this water; protected-area rules will apply. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Sort the permit out before you load the car. Fishing rules and camping rules are set separately here. Weirgor Lake sits 4.2 miles off and takes the overflow. Confirm before you fish Beverly Lake.
