Wisconsin DNR fisheries survey

Fish population 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.

Northern pike0.4 fish/net-nightCPUE for fish at least 14 inches long · Late-spring fyke netting
Management contextLake-specific late-spring fyke-net snapshot across 24 net-nights. Crappie and muskellunge were primary targets; walleye, pike, bluegill and smallmouth-bass observations retain non-standard timing/gear cautions.

DNR found exceptional crappie size, a possible shift toward larger but less abundant muskellunge, increasing northern-pike presence, very low-density high-quality bluegill and large smallmouth bass.

  • PDF page 2 is a raster infographic. It was rendered at 4x and RapidOCR-assisted; every promoted value was manually reconciled against species, threshold and unit labels plus narrative context.
  • No catch total is back-calculated from rounded CPUE.
  • Walleye lacks an exact current value and receives no invented metric.
  • Pike, bluegill and smallmouth-bass results use non-standard timing or gear and remain explicitly sample-scoped.

Depth FAQ

How deep is Moose Lake?

Moose Lake is 21 feet deep at its deepest point and averages about 8 feet, according to Wisconsin DNR records.

Is there a free depth map of Moose Lake?

Yes. LakeList publishes a free interactive depth contour map of Moose 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 Moose 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.
