79-acre lake near Dodge County. Nebraska Game and Parks Commission survey water. The lake tops out around 14 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Fremont Lake 15 maps at 79 acres behind 2.3 miles of shoreline. With a 1.8 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. The basin spans about 1.1 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. It sits in Dodge County. If the bite dies, Fremont Lake 18 is 0 mi to the southeast.
Spring rainbow trout on Fremont Lake 15 hold shallow, usually 4 to 14 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 4 to 14 ft in summer, 3 to 14 ft once it turns cold.

The summer box starts with a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon.
