227-acre lake near Becker County. The lake tops out around 47 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The drawn water covers 227 acres wrapped in 3.9 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Roughly 57% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. Figure 1 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.7 mi at the beam. It sits in Becker County. Bass sits 1 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
Start shallow in spring: walleye sit in 4 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 15 to 35 ft; cold water stacks them in 20 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 21 ft range, prime in fall. Fish it in the evening and early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) until the fish tell you otherwise.
