Scattering Rice Lake
Scattering Rice Lake is a mid-sized member of the Eagle River Chain, positioned slightly away from the busiest hub lakes.

This is a summary based on available information.
Chain‑wide information notes that Scattering Rice holds the same general mix of walleyes, muskies, pike, bass, and panfish as the rest of the Eagle River system, with its shallow nature favoring weed‑related patterns. Weed edges, creek mouths, and subtle current areas can fish very well, especially for walleyes and panfish during low‑light periods and shoulder seasons. Because the basin is not overly deep, anglers often work 6–10 foot zones with jigs, live bait rigs, and crankbaits, focusing on spots slightly away from the main travel lanes. For cabin owners, Scattering Rice can fish like a productive home base for routine outings, with the rest of the chain available when they want to roam or chase a particular bite.
