Has anyone been up to spencer lake in jackman? Going up this weekend and hoping for a chance at her. Thanks

I tried to go in a couple weeks ago but the gate was still closed on the road and I wasn't about to try running the pond to get there.

Ok back from spencer and jackman. Gate was open and spencer rd is plowed. They are Logging in there right now.
About 8 inches of good ice on the lake but the south inlet was still open. Caught a bunch of Brookies and some splake but we stayed pretty close to shoreline. Great trip!! Go get em

My buddy who died this fall built the lodge and camps on Spencer

lion · « **Reply #7 on:** Jan 19, 2016, 11:36 AM »

I've met the guy that takes care of that place a few times and seems like a nice guy. Even invited my wife and I to fish in his shack. I'd love to get a tour of that place.

I have never seen it done but it's a work of art. Seen pictures at Harry's funeral.

The lodge with all the little cabins is so cool. We met the caretaker one trip and he was pretty cool. I've never seen anybody stay there though?? Granted I only go up in the fall and winter.

Where is the access to the lake? Can I drive there? My buddy has a camp on Old Spencer Rd, but he no I have ever fished up there in the winter. I would like to get my ducks in a row before going. I am not looking for secrets, just an FYI.

Drive as close as you can to mile 13 on Spencer Rd. Take road on left through gate, if gate is closed you can run fish pond and follow the trail to the inlet. If you can get through the gate which it sounds like you can, the trail will take you out right onto the lake.

Agree Jakal.
Been fishing Spencer for 30 years and have yet to see a Splake even iIf FW would have screwed up with a stocking which is poss or someone dropped some in.
Love to see the pics .., More than likely they are Togue or BT.

TheSituation · « **Reply #23 on:** Feb 03, 2016, 08:23 AM »

Any pics / more reports from this year?

lion · « **Reply #24 on:** Feb 03, 2016, 09:48 AM »

profishingmaster1 · « **Reply #25 on:** Feb 06, 2016, 10:38 AM »

Hey guys I want to try spencer tomorrow and have never been. If anyone could pm me and give me some advice on how to get there and if I need to watch out for any bad spots on the lake the would be great thanks!.

Went after the rain. Spencer road plowed to about mile 11. Need to sled in from there to landing on Fish. Open water near thoroughfare on both ends, be careful. There was an inch or two of water on the ice over entire lake. What were drifts was slush, some places maybe 8 inches. With this fresh snow probably all slush. Open water couple places in the narrows. Stay left close to shore. 8 to 12 inches of ice on lake. Bring plenty of bait, the perch are hungry

Catch anything besides perch?

Funny you say that because in about 5 or 6 times fishing it, we have only caught a few perch total.
