DNR water check
Water quality quick take
From Wisconsin DNR / Citizen Lake Monitoring readings at East Alaska Lake - Deep Hole.
Sampled Jun 2026Volunteer monitoring since 1992
Somewhat hazy but low-algae water — summer clarity of 8.4 ft is clearer than most monitored Wisconsin lakes.
Based on July–August 2025 averages across 4 volunteer readings.51Eutrophic5-yr summer TSI
Nutrient-rich, greener water — more algae and plant growth, common in shallower lakes.

Latest individual samples: Secchi 9.5 ft (2025-10-20), chlorophyll-a 2 µg/L (2026-06-22), and total phosphorus 15 µg/L (2025-06-30).
Secchi clarity is how deep a black-and-white disk stays visible from the surface — more feet means clearer water.
Chlorophyll-a is an algae pigment; higher values signal more algae in the water column.
Total phosphorus is a nutrient that feeds algae and aquatic plants. It is not a weed survey — depth, bottom type, water movement, and management change the actual lake experience.

Wisconsin DNR fisheries survey
Fish population survey
Structured LakeList extraction from the 2024 DNR fisheries survey. Population estimates, density, and catch-rate indices use different units, methods, and scopes, so each value is presented in its original form rather than normalized against a different measure.
Survey indicatorsValues keep their source unit and method; unlike measures are not scaled or compared.
Management contextLake-wide 2024 late-spring fyke-net and whole-shoreline electrofishing survey; gear counts/CPUE and combined size metrics remain distinct.
DNR documented abundant small largemouth bass and bluegill, favorable size structure for several panfish species, and a distinctive adult muskellunge population.
- The report prints 38 adult muskellunge and 0.5 fish/acre for a 53-acre lake; because those values are arithmetically inconsistent, only the 38-fish estimate is promoted and the density/interval are excluded.
- The acknowledgements call the electrofishing year 2025, conflicting with the 2024 methods, title and figure captions; the stray date is excluded.
- Historical survey/stocking values, statewide percentiles and graph-only values are excluded.

Depth FAQ
How deep is East Alaska Lake?
East Alaska Lake is 50 feet deep at its deepest point and averages about 17 feet, according to Wisconsin DNR records.
Is there a free depth map of East Alaska Lake?
Yes. LakeList publishes a free interactive depth contour map of East Alaska Lake at a typical 5-foot interval, with an optional 3D underwater view, derived from C-MAP Genesis community sonar (derived) survey data.
Where does the East Alaska Lake depth map come from?
The interactive depth contours are derived from C-MAP Genesis community sonar (derived). Each contour set passes a visual QA review against the source document before it is published. The depths are derived from community sonar recordings (C-MAP Genesis Social Map, used with permission), with gaps between recordings interpolated; not for navigation.
