About the Lake
Pickerel is an All-Sports Lake located in Coldwater Springs in Kalkaska County, MI. There is a public boat launch just minutes away, so feel free to bring your boat or wave runners & tie off to our private dock!
Anglers will enjoy excellent fishing on the lake. It’s been stocked with walleyes for several years, and you’ll find lots of them here. The average size is about 4lbs, but there are bigger fish of 8 pounds or more present. This 100 acre lake has more than walleyes, though. You’ll find northern pike, impressive largemouth bass, blue gills and perch.
