4,617-acre lake near Dore Lake. The lake tops out around 15 ft. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The drawn water covers 4,606 acres wrapped in 10.6 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. End to end it runs roughly 3.6 mi, about 2.6 mi across. Division No. 18 claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Ted's Lake, is 12 mi to the southwest.
In spring, cisco (lake herring) run shallow here, mostly 4 to 15 ft. Summer keeps them at 5 to 15 ft, and they winter in 5 to 15 ft. Spring cisco (lake herring) concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 13 ft. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a vertical flutter spoon (small) or a drop-shot micro plastic most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 4 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (13 ft) | Small silver spoon, Tiny swim jig (white) |
| Summer | 5 to 15 ft | dawn | Deep basin (13 ft) | Vertical flutter spoon (small), Drop-shot micro plastic |
| Fall | 3 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Gravel shoal (2 ft) | Small casting spoon, Inline spinner (silver) |
| Winter | 5 to 15 ft | dawn | Deep basin (13 ft) | Small jigging spoon (glow/silver), Tungsten jig + minnow head |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 5 to 15 ft. Summer keeps them at 5 to 15 ft, and they winter in 5 to 15 ft. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 13 ft. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (7 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 5 to 15 ft | dawn | Deep basin (13 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 4 to 15 ft | dusk | Gravel shoal (2 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 5 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (13 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 2 to 8 ft. Expect a summer slide to 5 to 15 ft, then a winter hold in 5 to 15 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 3 ft that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Summer | 5 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (7 ft) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Fall | 5 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (7 ft) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 5 to 15 ft | midday | Feeding flat (6 ft) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: walleye in 4 to 15 ft. The depth story barely changes: 5 to 15 ft through summer, 5 to 15 ft in winter. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 7 ft range, prime in fall. Time it for the evening and early morning. Summer baits: a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 4 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Gravel shoal (2 ft) | 1/8 oz jig + minnow, Hair jig |
| Summer | 5 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (7 ft) | Crawler harness on bottom bouncer, Deep crankbait (trolled) |
| Fall | 5 to 15 ft | dusk & night | Break off the point (7 ft) | Jigging rap, Jig + big minnow |
| Winter | 5 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (13 ft) | Jigging spoon + minnow head, Rattle bait |
In spring, yellow perch run shallow here, mostly 3 to 12 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 5 to 15 ft, and winter fish settle into 5 to 15 ft. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 3 ft, rated prime for spring yellow perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |
