Warmest water of the year. Fish hold deeper or feed in low light; swimming and watersports are at their best.
Estimates are modeled, not measured. Actual temperatures vary with depth, wind mixing, and recent weather — verify conditions before swimming, boating, or heading onto ice.
DNR water check
Historical volunteer-monitoring record for this lake.
The last DNR samples for this lake are from 2001, when the water showed hazy water (~4 ft Secchi) and high algae (chlorophyll ~46 µg/L). After 25 years without samples, these readings describe the lake as it was, not as it is.
| Year | Secchi | Chlorophyll-a | Total phosphorus |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2001 | 4.0 ft (1) | 46.0 µg/L (1) | — |

Wisconsin DNR fisheries survey
Structured LakeList extraction from the 2025 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.
DNR reported very high bluegill and high black-crappie density but small size, plus low-density northern pike with a high preferred-size share.
