Bass

For bass at Hubert, fish weeds, wood and shade with a spinnerbait, jig or Texas-rigged worm for largemouth, and work a tube, Ned rig or small crankbait across rock and firm points for smallmouth.

Crappie, Yellow Perch, and Sunfish

For panfish at Hubert, use a small jig or minnow beside brush for crappie, and fish a worm, cricket or tiny jig near weeds for bluegill, pumpkinseed, and green sunfish, and keep a small jig, minnow or worm close to bottom for yellow perch.

Walleye

For roaming fish at Hubert, jig a minnow or troll a crankbait along points and deeper edges for walleye.

Northern Pike

For large predators at Hubert, cast a spoon, spinnerbait or swimbait beside weeds for northern pike.

Bullheads and Carp

For bottom fishing at Hubert, fish a worm or small piece of cut bait in quiet water for bullheads, and use corn or dough bait on a simple bottom rig for carp.

Other Reported Fish

Other choices at Hubert include these plans: work a tough soft plastic or cut bait near weeds and wood for bowfin.

Rock Bass

At Hubert, use a small jig, worm or tiny crankbait around rock and firm shorelines for rock bass.

Cisco

For other cold-water fish at Hubert, use a tiny jig or small spoon at the depth where cisco are schooling.

How the Seasons Change Lake Hubert

Spring at Hubert is a good time to check warm coves and incoming water, and summer fishing is usually better in cooler, deeper water. Fall at Hubert can bring fish back to windy points and banks, while winter calls for smaller baits fished slowly.

A Simple Plan for Fishing Lake Hubert

On a first trip to Hubert, check one quiet cove, one rocky or firm point and the nearby deep water with a moving lure, then use a jig or worm where you find fish.

Useful Tackle for Lake Hubert

A medium spinning rod covers smaller lures at Hubert, while a heavier rod and stronger leader are better for northern pike.

Lake Hubert FAQs

Where should an angler start on the 1,288-acre Lake Hubert?

At Hubert, pick one cove and the closest point or drop into deep water, then fish that small area well before making a long move.

Should anglers fish the 81-foot deep end of Lake Hubert?

Not every trip. A better place at Hubert is where a point, drop-off or group of baitfish gives the fish a reason to stop.

What does the 32,497 acre-foot storage figure mean at Lake Hubert?

At Hubert, it shows that a lot of the water sits away from the bank and around the old channel or deep end.
