45-acre lake near Wright 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. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Round maps at 45 acres behind 1.1 miles of shoreline. At index 1.2 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 67% of this chart. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.4 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. It sits in Wright County. Its nearest charted neighbour, Mary, is 1 mi to the south.
