Irogami Lake Fishing Guide, Waushara County, Wisconsin

• Overview

  Irogami Lake falls in Waushara County, part of Wisconsin. The bank is 866 feet above sea level. At some 290 acres it is far too large to cover on foot in a day. Size puts it in the front rank of our Waushara County list. Head to Silver Lake, 0.8 miles away, for anything you forgot. Further out sit Wautoma (2.8 miles) and Mount Morris (3.9 miles). The county line runs close by, so rules can change within a short drive.

• Where to Fish on Irogami Lake

  No figure exists for depth, so let the water show you. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. Look for the band where the shallows give up and the bottom falls away. Across Waushara County, recorded fish include brown trout, rainbow trout, bluegill, largemouth bass and northern pike. The list covers the county rather than this water alone, so treat it as a guide. Irogami Lake gives up its fish to patience rather than distance.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The warmest month averages 71°F, the coldest about 15°F. Fishing here follows the temperature more than the calendar. Once it clears, about early April, the fishing comes on quickly. Open water usually runs from early April until about early December. The strongest runs come at either end of the open season. Irogami Lake runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.

• Tackle & Baits

  Access is not recorded for this water. Parking is not close: half a mile from the bank, and no nearer option is mapped. For the bass here, soft plastics worked slow along cover and a spinnerbait for searching do most of the work. A landowner's word beats anything printed elsewhere. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. For a change of water, Silver Lake is 0.7 miles distant. Ask locally about Irogami Lake if anything is unclear.
