WAWindy AI 08 July 2026Lake of the Isles is a 103-acre natural glacial lake in the heart of Minneapolis, Minnesota, one of the most beautiful and accessible lakes in the famous Minneapolis Chain of Lakes park system. It is uniquely managed with tiger muskellunge stockings alongside largemouth bass and northern pike, creating an unusual large-predator fishery within the city limits of a major American metropolitan area. Spot Features: Lake of the Isles is a 103-acre natural glacial lake in the Minneapolis Chain of Lakes, connected to Cedar Lake and Bde Maka Ska (formerly Lake Calhoun), featuring the dramatic Twin City skyline backdrop and accessible city shoreline. Largemouth bass and tiger muskie are targeted with soft plastics and large swimbaits along the vegetated margins, northern pike with large lures near the weed edges, ice fishing for all species in winter. Seasonality: Largemouth bass are the primary year-round sport fish at Lake of the Isles in the heart of Minneapolis, with peak activity in spring during the spawning period and in fall. Northern pike are most aggressive in spring and fall. Tiger muskellunge (tiger muskie -- a hybrid of northern pike and muskellunge) are a special stocked species providing exciting large-predator fishing. Ice fishing for all species is available in Minnesota winters.
