263-acre lake near Hennepin County. The lake tops out around 25 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. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Drawn out, this is 263 acres of water rimmed by 3.1 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.4), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 52% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 1 mi with a 0.6-mi widest point. The water lies in Hennepin County. The nearest mapped water is Haughey, 2 mi to the south.
Early season yellow perch use the shallows, holding in 3 to 12 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 25 ft, then a winter hold in 8 to 25 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 8 ft that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm and you're in the game.
