Little Rice Lake
Little Rice Lake is a large, shallow flowage-style lake northwest of Crandon with broad flats, marshy edges, and a wide-open, river-lake character. Its scale creates big-sky views, but its shallow nature favors pontoons, fishing rigs, and paddlers over high-speed craft.
The mix of wetlands, channels, and open water gives it a more rugged, exploratory feel than tight kettle lakes. It appeals most to anglers and buyers who enjoy a broader, more natural landscape.

This is a summary based on available information.
Little Rice Lake’s shallow, stained water and flowage character support good populations of panfish, pike, bass, and walleyes concentrated along channels, wood, and weedlines. Anglers often follow river channels and depth changes with jigs, crankbaits, and live bait rigs, paying attention to current and wind. The off‑color water lets fish feed shallower throughout the day, creating solid daytime bite windows when conditions line up. As with many flowages, learning how water levels and flow shift fish location is key to consistent success.
