Fish species in Paddock Lake

Paddock Lake is one of the lakes mapped in Kenosha County and the current record puts it at about 128 acres and a maximum depth of 32 feet, so you can decide whether to fish it slow or break the day into a few different areas.

I would start with a few obvious areas and make the lake prove I need more with a short rotation through shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank before I started digging through the tackle box for a magic answer.

Fish to think about

The water-specific species list for Paddock Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would pack with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and make the first hour useful instead of random.

Where I would put my time

For the opening trip to Paddock Lake, I would choose a few spots that look different from one another and give each one a fair chance, and I would read the current Wisconsin rules once before the trip so there are no surprises.
