751-acre lake near North Dakota. North Dakota Game & Fish survey water. The lake tops out around 17 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Logan Lake maps at 751 acres behind 4.6 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.2 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. 82% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Figure 2 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.9 mi at the beam. Logan County claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Zenker Lake, is 2 mi to the west.
In spring, walleye run shallow here, mostly 4 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 5 to 17 ft, and winter fish settle into 5 to 17 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 17 ft, rated prime for winter walleye. Time it for the evening and early morning. You won't need more than a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) most summer days.
