Boats and fishing in Lake Wawasee
Bass, bluegill and pike are fished, and pontoons and sailboats are common.
Lake Wawasee waterways
The lake connects to Syracuse Lake, and Turkey Creek flows out. Lake homes, marinas and the Wawasee Yacht Club line the shores.
The season runs from spring to fall, and boats are stored for winter. Wawasee has been a resort lake since the late 1800s, and it is busy with pontoons, ski boats, wake boats and sailboats on summer weekends. The lake is glacial, with a mix of deeper basins and shallow weed flats, and its channels lead to smaller lakes and boat-only restaurants. Many boats sit on lifts at private piers all summer, so a battery switch or a lithium battery with low self-discharge helps them start reliably after a week off. Bass anglers who fish the weed edges at first light rely on trolling motor batteries that last all morning.
Batteries that fit Lake Wawasee boats
Pontoons and tritoons
Pontoon owners in Lake Wawasee often ask for more runtime for speakers and lights without giving up a reliable start. A 12V 100Ah lithium battery as a house battery, paired with a dual-purpose AGM for cranking, is a simple and popular setup. If you prefer one battery, choose a dual-purpose model with enough cranking amps for your outboard.
Sailboats and cruising boats
Many sailboat owners around Syracuse Lake stay with AGM or flooded batteries for simplicity and cost. Whichever you choose, keep the house bank and starting battery separate, and replace all batteries in a bank at the same time.
Bass boats
Bass boats on Lake Wawasee usually run a 24V or 36V trolling motor and a separate cranking battery, plus electronics that can draw several amps at the console and bow. Lithium trolling batteries hold full voltage until nearly empty, so the motor doesn’t slow down late in the day, and they save a lot of weight in the back of the boat.
Keeping batteries healthy in Indiana
Pontoons need house power for stereos and lights.
Upper Midwest lakes freeze solid in winter, and boats are stored from fall to spring. Charge batteries before storage, and remove them or keep them on a maintainer. For early and late season fishing, heated lithium batteries can be charged in cold weather.
The open-water season is short, so anglers fish hard when they can. Lithium batteries give steady trolling motor power all day and recharge quickly.

Lake Wawasee shipping FAQ
How should I store my battery over a Indiana winter?
Charge it fully first. Lead-acid and AGM batteries should stay on a maintainer or be topped up every month or two, because a discharged lead-acid battery can freeze and crack. Lithium batteries hold their charge for months; store them around half to full charge, with the battery switch off, somewhere they won’t be charged below freezing.
Is lithium shipping really free to Lake Wawasee?
Yes. Lithium batteries over $150 ship free by curbside truck freight to addresses in the lower 48 states, including Lake Wawasee.
Do chargers and accessories ship free?
Chargers, accessories and lithium batteries of $150 or less ship free when your cart subtotal is $150 or more. Otherwise a flat shipping rate applies, shown at checkout.
Can you ship to my marina?
We can ship to most addresses, but marinas with restricted access or no way to receive freight may cost extra or need special arrangements. A home or business address is usually easiest. Contact us before you order if you want to ship to a marina.
