Lake Fishing

Cool Water Angling - Large lakes including Higgins and Lake Margrethe are all-around recreational facilities. Higgins is a deep lake that not only contains cool water fish such as Northern Pike and Perch but also Lake and Brown Trout. Lake Margrethe is shallow and contains Bass, Bluegills, Bullheads, Walleye and some Muskellunge.

KP Lake and Jones Lake are also fairly large lakes with a variety of cool water fish. Smaller Lakes include Frog and Kyle Lakes. Shupac Lake in the Northern part of the county contains trout as well as cool water species.

Bright and Glory Lakes located on the Hartwick Pines State Park property contain Trout as well as Bluegills. In addition to a fishing license and trout stamp you must have a state park permit.

Wakeley Lake is a federal property and is "walk in" only. Only artificial baits are permitted and fish caught must be released. A sticker is required and can be purchased at Larry & Joan's Store on M-72 East.
