Bemidji Fishing on Lake Plantagenet

Lake Plantagenet is a 2,531 acre lake with a maximum depth of 65 feet located in northern Minnesota about 4 miles south of Bemidji, MN. Walleye numbers are good in this lake. There are a variety of ways to catch both eaters and trophy walleye throughout the spring, summer and fall. Fishing with jigs (pitching jigs), trolling spinners and crankbaits and slip-bobber fishing are all effective ways to catch these tasty fish!

Lake Plantan is also a popular Minnesota muskie destination and there are some very big fish over 50 inches here! Northern pike, largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, rock bass and jumbo perch round out the fishery on Lake Plantagenet.

Lake Plantagenet is home to the Minnesota state record perch: 3lbs 4oz.
