• Where to Fish on Camp Four Springs

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Species logged across Iron County include walleye, northern pike, yellow perch, muskellunge and rainbow trout. County records show what lives in the area; the local agency holds the water-by-water list. Camp Four Springs repays a walk before the first cast.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Long-run averages give July about 66°F and January about 10°F. The year runs cold to warm and back, with clear transitions. Count the season from break-up, usually mid April.

Plan any trip to Camp Four Springs around it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether the bank is open is not something our records settle. Nothing built is recorded close to the bank here. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. A phone call first saves an afternoon. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. South Lake at 1 mile is the sensible second choice. Nothing here settles the position at Camp Four Springs for certain.
