298-acre lake near Isanti County. The lake tops out around 5 ft. The depth data here comes from a DNR lake survey. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The drawn water covers 298 acres wrapped in 4 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.6) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Call it 1.4 mi long by 0.5 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Isanti County. Fawn sits 2 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: walleye in 1 to 5 ft. The depth story barely changes: 2 to 5 ft through summer, 2 to 5 ft in winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 5 ft of water that rates prime for walleye in fall. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) gets it done.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 5 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (3 ft) | 1/8 oz jig + minnow, Hair jig |

You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.
