Plan your visit

• Lake directory: public landing — No
• Lake directory: public beach — No
• Lake directory: public park — No

Each statement is bounded to its named source; absence of a record is never evidence of no access. The DNR access database may lag reality; posted signs at the landing are authoritative.

Verify at the DNR public boat access program page.

Fishing

The DNR lake page publishes 1 fish species/groups with abundance categories — categories are source labels, never a population count.

DNR fish labels: Panfish—Present; not population counts.

No fisheries survey population estimate is published for this lake in the covered report families.

Fishing limits — 2026-2027 season: 17 normalized rows across 17 species entries. Normalized from the DNR ruleset retrieved 2026-08-04. Source text remains authoritative.

2026-2027 retained fishing rules: 17 published rows for 17 species; effective through 2027-03-07. Check current DNR rules.

Water and setting

• Satellite clarity estimate: 3 ft (2011) — a remote-sensing estimate, kept separate from field measurements

Official DNR depth map (PDF) — Historical lake map; not for navigation. Link checked 2026-07-16.

• AIS record: Curly-leaf pondweed — Verified, latest documented 2018-05-23
• AIS record: Phragmites (non-native ecotype) — Verified, latest documented 2024-12-03

Occurrence records come from a non-exhaustive DNR inventory; a record documents presence at observation time and a missing record is never evidence of absence.

• Public-land proximity (GIS proxy, not access evidence): mapped public land within 1,000 ft; nearest: Honey Creek Wildlife Area (SDNR); ≈0% of shoreline buffer
• Shoreline development (landcover proxy, 2025 source): ≈53.9% developed land within 300 m, ≈12.5% impervious
• Road proximity (TIGER proxy, 2025 source): nearest local road or city street ≈21 m; ≈4.2 km of road per km² within 1 km

• Priority Navigable Waterway — basis: lake under 50 acres

Designations are legally defined DNR records shown as their sources state them; no composite rating is implied.
