Fishing Landberg Lake in Oneida County, Wisconsin

• Overview

  Landberg Lake is one of the Oneida County listings for Wisconsin. It lies 1,562 feet above sea level. It covers about 10 acres, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. Our Oneida County list holds plenty of bigger water. Rhinelander sits 2.8 miles from the bank. Green Bay sits 101 miles out, and it is the nearest city worth the name. It sits near the edge of the county, so check which rules apply.

• Where to Fish on Landberg Lake

  Our records carry no depth, so judge it from the bank. On a natural lake the weed line and the shelf beyond it do the work. The shallow end warms first and pulls fish in ahead of the rest. Oneida County records list brown trout, walleye, largemouth bass and northern pike among the fish reported. The county figures include rivers and lakes alike. Landberg Lake fishes better once you know its edges.

• Seasonal Patterns

  Climate normals give 67°F for July and 10°F for January. Cold winters and warm summers give a wide working range. Hard water holds through the cold months, breaking up near mid April. Ice usually gives way near mid April, and forms again about late November. Just after the ice goes and just before it returns, the fishing lifts. Landberg Lake runs to that rhythm year in and year out.

• Tackle & Baits

  No public source sets out the position on this bank. Recorded parking is half a mile off, far enough to travel light. 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. Rules for boats are stricter than rules for the bank in many places. For a change of water, Davis Lake is 0.4 miles distant. Nothing here settles the position at Landberg Lake for certain.
