Spot Features: Brownie Lake is a small natural lake in the Minneapolis Chain of Lakes in Hennepin County, one of the city's beloved urban lakes, managed by the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. The lake features a shallow bay, vegetated margins, and accessible shoreline. Bass and crappie are targeted with standard warmwater techniques, pike with large lures and live bait near the weed edges, ice fishing for pike in winter is a Minneapolis tradition. Seasonality: Largemouth bass are the primary year-round sport fish at Brownie Lake in Minneapolis, with peak activity in spring during the spawning period and in fall.
