Atkins Lake–Cable, wi

Hello,

I am heading to Atkins Lake in Cable Wi–Chequamegon Nat. Forest at the end of June.

I am going with my family and Atkins Lake seems like a nice little lake with a mix bag of fish.

I will be looking to see if anyone has fished the lake and can tell me anything about the lake. I will be target bass and panfish mainly along with some relaxing on the boat.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Just following up for any information on the lake or general area. Thanks,

Atkins is a beautiful clear water lake. Fished it 45 yrs ago when we caught big rainbows. I believe they are gone. There are both smallies and walleyes in the lake. I have never fished panfish there….Be prepared to fish 15 to 25 ft of water.

Fishing was decent. We got smallie in 8 to 18 feet of water. Most fish came on drop shot with a 4 inch purple worm. The other fish came on popper in the morning. Water was 85.

For a super clear lake I was surprised at the warm water temps. Very pretty area.
