BERLIN LAKE
Several boat launching sites and commercial boat liveries
provide fishing access to Berlin Lake. Spring is the best time
to fish the lake; live bait and spinning lures are most effective.
• diverse sport fish populations which include largemouth
bass, smallmouth bass, white bass, walleye, white
crappie, black crappie, bluegill, channel catfish, brown
bullhead and muskellunge
• walleye, bass and crappies are predominant
Fishing in April, May and June produces good to excellent
catches of largemouth bass, walleye and crappies. Good
catches of channel catfish are made throughout the
fishing season, but July and August are the best
months. Bluegill are caught throughout the season.
