Among the waters in Langlade County, Turtle Lake is listed as a lake with the latest inventory showing about 58 acres and a maximum depth of 11 feet, so the size of the job is pretty easy to understand before you go.

My first day here would stay uncomplicated with the first real effort focused on shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would give the fish a chance to show me whether they want shallow cover or nearby depth.

What the fish list tells you

The exact-water list for Turtle Lake includes Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, Pumpkinseed, Smallmouth Bass, and Yellow Perch; so I would spend the first serious effort on weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and let current conditions settle the details.

Where I would start

If I had never seen Turtle Lake before, I would fish what is in front of me instead of trying to make the lake match an old report, then I would confirm the current Wisconsin rules for the species I plan to target.
