Fish species in McCabe Lake

On the map, McCabe Lake shows up as a lake in Oneida County and the best numbers we have right now are about 50 acres and a maximum depth of 6 feet, and that is a much better place to start than pretending every lake fishes the same.

I would give a few different kinds of spots an honest chance by working shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I started running around looking for something better.

Fish recorded in this water

The species record attached to McCabe Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; and I would begin by covering weeds and easy cover for panfish, and then let the actual bites decide what comes next.

An easy starting plan

For a first trip to McCabe Lake, I would choose a few spots that look different from one another and give each one a fair chance, and I would still look at the current Wisconsin regulations before fishing.
