Campine Lake Fishing Guide, Oneida County, Wisconsin

• Overview

  This water sits in Oneida County, Wisconsin. The bank is 1,526 feet above sea level. Small at around 15 acres: two anglers spread out cover most of it. Most waters listed here for Oneida County are larger. Start from Tomahawk, 11 miles down the road. Then Rhinelander, 12 miles, and Lac du Flambeau, 26 miles. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Campine Lake

  Depth figures are not published for this one. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Weed, then depth: that is the order to fish a water of this kind. Fish documented in Oneida County include brown trout, walleye, largemouth bass and northern pike. It is the county picture; the agency list is water-specific. Read Campine Lake before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Averages here run 66°F at the top of summer and 10°F at the bottom of winter. The season turns properly here, and fish follow it closely. Look for the thaw near mid April; the fishing lifts straight after. Averages suggest open water from about mid April through to roughly late November. Fishing peaks soon after break-up and again before the cold returns. Campine Lake fishes to that pattern most years.

• Tackle & Baits

  Who may fish here is not settled in anything we hold. The car has to stay 0.9 miles away, which shapes how much tackle you bring. Woodboro Lakes Wildlife Area covers this ground, which means extra rules to check. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Parking is often the real limit rather than the bank itself. Night access is frequently treated as a separate matter. Should this one be busy, Oscar-Jenny Lake is 0.7 miles off. Nothing on Campine Lake should be assumed from this page alone.
