• Where to Fish on Brickyard Lake

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Still water like this holds fish on the edges rather than out in the open. The productive water is a rod length or two out, not a hundred. Open biodiversity records for Washington County list common carp, pumpkinseed, green sunfish, largemouth bass and bluegill. Those are county-wide records, so not every one of them will be in this water. At Brickyard Lake the first feature you find is worth twenty minutes.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 70°F for July and 17°F for January. A hard winter is normal, and the thaw brings a strong few weeks. Ice fishing carries the winter, and the water opens about early April. The lid tends to go about early April and return around early December. Early summer and early autumn carry the open-water season. Plan around that when you fish Brickyard Lake.
