Frontenac is a lake in Goodhue County, Minnesota. Frontenac covers about 79.4 acres.

For bass at Frontenac, fish weeds, wood and shade with a spinnerbait, jig or Texas-rigged worm for largemouth.
For panfish at Frontenac, 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.
For large predators at Frontenac, cast a spoon, spinnerbait or swimbait beside weeds for northern pike.
For bottom fishing at Frontenac, 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 choices at Frontenac include these plans: bounce a jig, worm or crayfish bait along firm bottom for freshwater drum, and work a tough soft plastic or cut bait near weeds and wood for bowfin.
On a first trip to Frontenac, 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.
Spring at Frontenac is a good time to check warm coves and incoming water, and summer is a good time to fish shade, weeds and the first drop into deeper water. Fall at Frontenac can bring fish back to windy points and banks, while winter calls for smaller baits fished slowly.
