Great fishing. Many 20"-30" pike, and keeper bass throughout the lake. Not as good as Black Lake, since it's a smaller lake.

My grandparents have a cottage on this lake and i have been fishing it for almost 20 years. I mostly bass fish and know there are some real big bass in there. I like to use weedless frogs as deep in the weeds as u can get. The north end of the lake has some real nice pike make sure u have a steel leader some are rather large !

1 Walleye, Several pike 24-27", several 2lbs bass, 1 dogfish, all on tip ups. Couldn't produce anything jigging. I have fished his lake in all seasons and most fun is definitely winter.

This is agreat lake to fish for crappie, large and small mouth bass, pike, and walley. I enjoy fishing this lake regularly throughout the summer. Butterfield lake offers a great deal of grass to drop shot or spinnerbait. I have yet to catch any massive size bass out of this lake, but I have had a grand time catching quite a few 2 to 4 pound bass.

I FISHED THE LAKE 5 TIMES THIS SUMMER (2008). MARKED MANY FISH.HUGE HITS,GOOD FIGHTS,NONE LANDED. BEST HITS ON DEEP DIVING BLUE BOMMERS, ANY MODEL WORKED. WE ONLY FISHED FROM 6:00 PM TO AN HOUR AFTER SUNSET. THIS IS A HEALTHY LAKE. THE FISH ARE WELL FED. I'M NOT TO EXCITED ABOUT SMALL FISH. THE FISH I HOOKED, SAW, & LOST WERE BIG FISH. PUT THIS LAKE ON YOUR LIST, BUT EXPECT TO WORK HARD TO HOOK THE REALLY LARGE FISH.
