Lake Beulah, Wisconsin: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  Lake Beulah lies in Walworth County, Wisconsin. The bank is 804 feet above sea level. This is sizeable water at about 805 acres, and a boat opens up most of it. Around 9.8 miles of bank, which is a long day on foot. It is among the larger waters listed here for Walworth County. The town to know is Potter Lake, 2 miles out. The big place round here is Milwaukee, 29 miles distant. The boundary is near enough that local access rules are worth double-checking.

• Where to Fish on Lake Beulah

  Nothing in our records gives a depth for this one. Levels move with the draw rather than the rain on water like this. Look for where the old bank line still shows under the surface. County-wide records name common carp, bluegill, brown trout, pumpkinseed and northern pike. The county list is broader than any single water. Read Lake Beulah before you fish it and the day goes better.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Seasonal averages run from 18°F in January up to 71°F in July. Four clear seasons, with a proper winter at one end. Count the season from break-up, usually early April. Break-up near early April, freeze-up near mid December: that is the shape of an average year. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. The season on Lake Beulah rarely departs from it.

• Tackle & Baits

  Whether you may fish here is not something records settle. There is camping recorded roughly half a mile off. Largemouth respond to soft plastics tight to cover; go weedless where the growth is heavy. Ask in the nearest town if you are unsure. A polite question at the farm gate opens more banks than anything else. For a change of water, Army Lake is 0.9 miles distant. Check the position at Lake Beulah before loading the car.
