About Rice Lake

Set in Wisconsin, United States, Rice Lake is a lake that holds the typical mix of warm-water and cool-water species you'd expect for the area. Anglers fishing Rice Lake usually focus their effort on transitions: the edges of weed beds, points that stick out into deeper water, and the shaded sides of any inflow. Early morning and the last hour of light tend to be the most productive windows on a body of water this size.

Fishing Techniques

• For Largemouth bass

  Vary your retrieve speed and lure presentation until you find what the bass are keying on, as their preferences can change daily based on weather and water conditions.

• For Northern pike

  Vary your retrieval speed and add pauses to entice strikes, especially in colder water.

• For Smallmouth bass

  Focus your fishing efforts around rocky structures, ledges, and areas with current, as smallmouth bass prefer these habitats.
