Fish species in Kenilworth Lake

Kenilworth Lake is a reservoir in Burlington County, but a dependable acreage figure was not found. Dependable maximum-depth and storage-volume figures were not found for Kenilworth Lake, so those measurements should not be guessed.

What to Expect at Kenilworth Lake

Without trustworthy acreage or depth figures for Kenilworth Lake, the safest approach is to read the water in front of you instead of assuming it fishes like another lake with the same name.

Fish and Useful Baits at Kenilworth Lake

Fish reported from Kenilworth Lake include black crappie, bluegill, chain pickerel, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.

Bass

A spinnerbait, square-bill and Texas rig cover the most useful largemouth situations on Kenilworth Lake.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

Crappie anglers on Kenilworth Lake should count the jig down beside brush until the holding depth becomes clear. A small float, light line and a piece of worm are enough for Kenilworth Lake bluegill around cover. Perch anglers on Kenilworth Lake should stay mobile until several bites come from the same depth.

Chain Pickerel

A spoon or compact swimbait worked beside weeds is a practical chain pickerel choice on Kenilworth Lake.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Kenilworth Lake

Keep one search bait and one slower follow-up bait ready so a short feeding window is not wasted on Kenilworth Lake. Then compare the incoming-water end of Kenilworth Lake with the dam side and any point that reaches the old channel.

When to Fish Kenilworth Lake

Early spring on Kenilworth Lake calls for a slow presentation near the first break outside protected water. At midday in summer, Kenilworth Lake anglers should slow down beside shade, weeds or a nearby depth change. Fall on Kenilworth Lake is a good time for small crankbaits and swimbaits around moving forage.
