Archer Lake Information
Archer Lake is a 64 acre lake southwest of Quincy in Branch County, part of the Coldwater Marble Chain between Middle Lake and Bartholomew Lake. It reaches about 35 feet deep, and boats can travel the connecting channels to the other lakes in the chain, where public launches are available. Anglers fish it for smallmouth bass, walleye, bullhead and panfish.
