Fish species in Kizers Little Lake

What to Expect at Kizers Little Lake

At 84.97 acres, Kizers Little Lake is small enough to fish methodically but large enough for one shoreline to differ from another.

Fish and Useful Baits at Kizers Little Lake

Fish reported from Kizers Little Lake include black crappie, bluegill, channel catfish, common carp, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, walleye, and yellow perch.

Bass

When largemouth bass hold tight to cover on Kizers Little Lake, a compact jig or weedless worm is more useful than repeated open-water casts. Rocky points on Kizers Little Lake suit a grub, tube or compact crankbait when smallmouth are the target.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

A soft-plastic minnow or live minnow placed beside cover is a sound crappie approach on Kizers Little Lake. For sunfish on Kizers Little Lake, keep a cricket or tiny jig close to weed edges and shaded wood. For Kizers Little Lake yellow perch, work a light jig slowly along the first firm-bottom break.

Walleye and Larger Predators

For Kizers Little Lake walleye, follow the old channel with a jig or pull a crankbait across the first sharp break.

A Simple Fishing Plan for Kizers Little Lake

Begin at a point or shoreline turn and work from shallow water toward the first useful depth change on Kizers Little Lake. Then check the original creek route, the dam end and any point on Kizers Little Lake that reaches toward deeper water.

When to Fish Kizers Little Lake

On Kizers Little Lake, spring fish often move onto protected banks before the open basin warms. Summer fishing on Kizers Little Lake is usually best at low light, beside shade or along the outside edge of healthy cover. During fall at Kizers Little Lake, revisit creek mouths and main points with baitfish-sized lures.
