63-acre lake near Lake County. The lake tops out around 60 ft. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Lunar maps at 63 acres behind 2.1 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.9) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 43% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone. The basin spans about 0.7 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. Lake County claims this one. Cherry sits 0 mi south — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring lake trout on Lunar hold shallow, usually 10 to 40 ft. They move out to 18 to 60 ft in summer and finish the year down in 15 to 60 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 51 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (15 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 18 to 60 ft chart-limited; documented 50 to 120 ft | dawn | Deep basin (51 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (15 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 15 to 60 ft chart-limited; documented 20 to 80 ft | dawn | Deep basin (51 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
Lunar carries 6 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 51 ft down.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Minnesota waters are set by the Minnesota DNR — and special regulations can apply to Lunar specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.
