Gremore Lake near Prairie du Chien: Fishing Spots, Seasons and Access

• Overview

  Gremore Lake sits within Crawford County in Wisconsin. It stands 610 feet above sea level. This is sizeable water at about 287 acres, and a boat opens up most of it. The nearest town is Prairie du Chien, 3.2 miles away. Beyond it, Monona at 12 miles and Waukon at 20 miles. A county line runs close by, so local bylaws can differ within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Gremore Lake

  There is no recorded depth, so work from what you can see. Where the bottom changes texture, fish gather; find that line. A soft bed grows weed late into autumn, which keeps fish shallow. Fish documented in Crawford County include common carp, northern pike, bluegill, goldfish and largemouth bass. What holds for the county may not hold for this water. At Gremore Lake light and wind decide more than tackle does.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Expect July near 73°F and January near 16°F on the long-run figures. A solid cap is the normal state through winter. The lid usually sets by midwinter and gives way around late March. The season between ice runs from about late March to early December. June through September is the settled part of the year, with the shoulders busier for fish. Anyone fishing Gremore Lake regularly works to that calendar.

• Tackle & Baits

  The rules here are undocumented as far as public sources go. There is a marina recorded roughly half a mile off. Bass water: a Texas-rigged worm near cover, a spinnerbait when you need to cover ground. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. Check whether bait restrictions apply before you buy any. For a change of water, Founders Pond is 2.4 miles distant. Treat access at Gremore Lake as something to verify.
