Fish and Useful Baits at Little Butler Lake

Bass

Low light favors a topwater or spinnerbait for Little Butler Lake largemouth; brighter conditions call for a slower presentation beside cover.

Crappie, Perch and Sunfish

For sunfish on Little Butler Lake, keep a cricket or tiny jig close to weed edges and shaded wood.

Catfish, Bullheads and Carp

Use a nightcrawler on a light bottom rig for Little Butler Lake bullheads, especially in quiet water after sunset.

Let wind and water clarity choose the starting bank, then follow that bank until the bottom or cover changes on Little Butler Lake. Then compare natural weed edges, shaded shoreline and changes from soft to firm bottom around Little Butler Lake before searching the middle.

When to Fish Little Butler Lake

A sunny spring afternoon can pull Little Butler Lake fish toward dark bottom, wood and new vegetation.
