Little Boot Lake, Wisconsin: Fishing Spots and Seasons

• Overview

  The Florence County end of Wisconsin holds Little Boot Lake. It stands 1,371 feet above sea level. It covers about 16 acres, so this is small water you can walk round in under an hour. Crystal Falls sits 11 miles from here and is the nearest stop. Green Bay is the closest city, 101 miles away. The boundary is close enough to be worth checking before you fish.

• Where to Fish on Little Boot Lake

  Our records hold no depth for this water. Bays and points beat straight shoreline every time on water like this. This is a lake, so the margins and the first drop matter most. Public occurrence data for Florence County names brown trout, rainbow trout, largemouth bass and bluegill. Species recorded across the county may be limited to a few waters. The shape of Little Boot Lake decides where the fish sit.

• Seasonal Patterns

  The range across the year is 10°F to 66°F. Winter shuts the surface down for months. Firm cover through the cold months, then open water from mid April. The lid tends to go about mid April and return around late November. Late spring and early autumn carry the year between them. Little Boot Lake runs to its own calendar within the local pattern.

• Tackle & Baits

  Nothing we hold confirms whether access is permitted. A carry of half a mile from the nearest parking is the price of fishing here. A small crankbait along the drop and a worm in the thick stuff cover the bass. Local rules can differ across the county line, so check where you stand. Where the way in crosses private ground, ask first. Failing this one, try Boot Lake, 0.4 miles away. Check the position on Little Boot Lake before loading the car.
