Location Details: Off Hillside Dr. in Warsaw. Limited shoreline fishing. Winona Lake which offers opportunities for most water sports, including boating, swimming and fishing. The downtown area has been renovated, featuring an historical district that has many boutiques and cafes to entice tourists. The Winona Lake Park is located on Park Avenue. There are tennis courts, a playground, beach area, pavilions and tables for picnics, and lots of beautiful trees and grassy areas – perfect for your family outing. At 562 acres, Winona Lake is rated as one of the better bass fisheries in northern Indiana, according to many of the area anglers. The downside to fishing Winona is that it is near Warsaw, so there is plenty of human development. The lake sees a lot of power boaters, water skiers and other pleasure craft. Early morning hours are best for anglers who want to escape the disturbances caused by other lake users. Winona is a typical Indiana natural lake with a maximum depth of around 80 feet. On the eastern side, shallow water extends out about 200 feet from the shore, which becomes thick with aquatic vegetation during the summer. There are three channels on the north end of the lake and one channel on the south end. These areas tend to attract and hold bass early in the spring. May is usually the month when channel fishing begins to subside. The exact timing is obviously dependent upon the weather. As the channel fishing success declines, most bass anglers will begin targeting the southwestern portion of the lake.
