Located nine miles south of Coldwater, Michigan, is a large, deep-water fishing area called Coldwater Lake. Run by the city of Coldwater, this 1,650-acre lake includes a variety of fish species, including catfish, crappie, largemouth bass, northern pike, smallmouth bass, sunfish, walleye, and yellow perch. The lake offers anglers a high probability of catching largemouth or walleye. The best way to enjoy the lake is to fish by boat. If you don’t own a boat, you can rent one at the marina. The best time to catch bluegill is in spring/early summer in the shallow area near Coldwater Marina. In late May, be on the lookout for spawning bass in Shawnee Shoals at the south end of the lake.
