Fish species in Andy Lake

Andy Lake is a lake in Copper River, Alaska and covers about 23.5 acres and reaches about 28.9 feet.

On a water as small as Andy Lake, one weed edge or deeper pocket can hold much of the day’s activity.

Around Andy Lake, for humpback whitefish, jig a small fly or compact bait close to firm bottom in cold water.

When fishing Andy Lake, for round whitefish, use a small jig, fly, or natural bait close to firm bottom.

How to Read the Water

For a trip to Andy Lake, use wind as a clue; a light push can carry food toward a bank, but hard wind may muddy it, so look for a clean edge near a point or protected pocket.

Season by Season

On Andy Lake, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.

A Simple Tackle Plan

At Andy Lake, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.

Record the wind, water color, depth beside useful cover, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce at Andy Lake.
