Blockhouse Lake
Blockhouse Lake is a small, quiet Mercer-area lake with a compact basin tucked into the woods west of town. Its modest size and mostly undeveloped shoreline give it a secluded, cabin-in-the-woods feel that contrasts with the area's larger, busier lakes. The mostly wooded shoreline and light development give it a very calm, cabin-in-the-woods atmosphere. It's best suited to small boats, pontoons, and paddlers who enjoy calm water, sheltered water, and simple shoreline cruising rather than big-water runs.

This is a summary based on available information.
Blockhouse Lake likely supports the typical Mercer mix of panfish, bass, and pike, with fish holding around weedlines and modest structure. Anglers can usually cover much of the lake in a short outing, pitching jigs, small crankbaits, and live bait rigs along edges. The quiet setting and light pressure help keep fish less conditioned than on marquee musky waters nearby. It’s a comfortable lake for families and new anglers who want straightforward, close‑to‑shore fishing.
