Witmers Lake is a reservoir in Pennsylvania, near Monroe County.
Witmers Lake is a reservoir in Monroe County, but a dependable surface-area figure was not found. Dependable maximum-depth and storage-volume figures were not found for Witmers Lake, so neither should be estimated from a similarly named lake.
Without trustworthy acreage or depth figures for Witmers 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 reported from Witmers Lake include black crappie, bluegill, channel catfish, largemouth bass, and yellow perch.
When largemouth bass hold tight to cover on Witmers Lake, a compact jig or weedless worm is more useful than repeated open-water casts.
For Witmers Lake crappie, hold a 1/16-ounce jig or minnow beside wood instead of dragging it through snags. Bluegill in Witmers Lake are practical targets with a worm or small jig suspended beside shallow cover. Yellow perch in Witmers Lake are commonly caught with a small jig tipped with a minnow or worm near bottom.
After dark, try a nightcrawler or cut bait near a channel turn when fishing Witmers Lake for channel catfish.
Start with the best-looking shallow cover during the first hour, then move to the nearest drop if the bank is quiet on Witmers Lake. Then check the original creek route, the dam end and any point on Witmers Lake that reaches toward deeper water.
Early spring on Witmers Lake calls for a slow presentation near the first break outside protected water. At midday in summer, Witmers Lake anglers should slow down beside shade, weeds or a nearby depth change. Fall on Witmers Lake is a good time for small crankbaits and swimbaits around moving forage.
