20-acre lake in Dodge County, Nebraska. The lake tops out around 18 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
On the chart, Fremont Lakes 2 draws 20 acres inside 0.7 miles of shoreline. Its 1.2 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 83% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.3 mi. The water lies in Dodge County. The nearest mapped water is Fremont Lakes 1, 0 mi to the east.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 5 to 18 ft. Summer keeps them at 5 to 18 ft, and they winter in 4 to 18 ft.

You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
