Lartsch Lake

If you are looking at Lartsch Lake, you are looking at a Forest County lake and the physical record currently shows about 0.4 acres and a maximum depth of 1 feet, so the size of the job is pretty easy to understand before you go.

Size, depth, and the lay of the lake

The first trip does not need a giant tackle plan and I would make the opening plan about the best bank cover, any obvious weeds, and the deepest water I can reach before I spent the rest of the day chasing somebody else's old fishing report.

The fishery on paper

I am leaving the fish list for Lartsch Lake alone until there is better exact-water evidence; so if a certain species is the whole reason for the trip, i would verify it with a current exact-water source first, and and adjust only after the lake gives me a reason.

My game plan

If I had a few hours to figure out Lartsch Lake, I would fish a few sensible areas, remember where the life is, and stop forcing a pattern that is not there, then I would confirm the current Wisconsin rules for the species I plan to target.
