Cranberry Lake Description
Cranberry Lake offers good fishing for brook trout and smallmouth bass. In the late 1800s' the lake earned a reputation for quality brook trout fishing, and that reputation stands today as anglers catch a number of brookies weighing over four pounds every year. Since 1981, the DEC has been stocking over 20,000 brook trout annually. The best fishing occurs in the spring at the mouth of the various creeks and brooks that flow into the lake. Cranberry Lake offer warm water species such as largemouth bass, sunfish, catfish, perch and pickerel. During the winter months perch and pickerel are caught through the ice. Cranberry Lake, located along Route 206, is a popular spot for boating, fishing and ice fishing. A boat ramp is available for public use.
