Fish population survey
Structured LakeList extraction from the 2023 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-specific May 2023 survey using 20 fyke-net nights and four miles of electrofishing. Every metric remains a relative-abundance or sample size-structure observation.
DNR documented high walleye, northern-pike, largemouth-bass, black-crappie and bluegill catch rates, good walleye and muskellunge size structure, and generally small panfish.
- Sparse raster figure pages 2-3 are retained in the hash-verified source but are not used for promoted values; every metric comes from page-numbered narrative on pages 4-6.
- No fish counts or whole-water abundance values are derived from rounded CPUE and effort.
- Weather and moving ice forced crews to relocate several nets; source CPUE values are retained as printed.

Where does the Lost Land 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.
