Reel in the Catch
of the Day in Michigan’s
Coldwater Country
With more than 100 lakes, including
two chains of lakes, Coldwater Coun-
try offers countless opportunities for
novice to expert anglers and every-
one in between to reel in the catch of
the day. Spend a day, weekend, or
week fishing the lakes of Coldwater
Country and find out why Coldwater
Country sells more fishing licenses
than any other area of the state.
Notably the largest of the area lakes at 1,650
acres, Coldwater Lake is home to an abundance
of fish including catfish, crappie, large- and small-
mouth bass, northern pike, sunfish, walleye, and
yellow perch. For the best action, a boat is re-
quired. Boats, canoes, and kayaks are available
for rent locally. The shallow area near Coldwater
Marina is best in spring and early summer for
bluegills.
Try shore fishing at Coldwater Country’s Marble
Lake for the best catch of bluegills and large-
mouth bass. Crappie, northern pike, smallmouth
bass, sunfish and walleye can also be found
throughout this 780 acre lake, located on the
largest chain of lakes.
