Bass Lake

Aerial view of Bass Lake, a 266 acre lake in Eagle River, Wisconsin

Bass Lake is a 266-acre semi-private, spring-fed lake located about 10 minutes from Eagle River. The water is moderately clear, and the lake’s shallow profile supports a warmwater fishery typical of northern Wisconsin.

Because it is semi-private, overall use tends to feel more controlled than fully public lakes. Bass Lake appeals to buyers who prioritize fishing, proximity to Eagle River, and a lower-key boating environment over deep-water recreation.

This is a summary based on available information.

Shallow, stained conditions favor panfish, largemouth bass, and pike, with walleyes present as part of the broader Rhinelander Chain fishery. Anglers often key on weedbeds, channels, and subtle depth changes, casting spinnerbaits, jigs, and shallow‑running crankbaits that stand out in low visibility. Fish can remain active in relatively shallow water through much of the day because light penetration is limited. Chain connectivity also means fish movement between nearby lakes, so wind, water levels, and flow can influence where the best action sits at a given time.
