Wisconsin DNR fisheries survey
Fish population survey
Structured LakeList extraction from the 2022 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 contextA shortened 2022 Spring Electrofishing II survey assessed Spring Lake bass and panfish; northern pike were survey by-catch.

Depth FAQ
How deep is Spring Lake?
Spring Lake is 37 feet deep at its deepest point and averages about 22 feet, according to Wisconsin DNR records.
Is there a free depth map of Spring Lake?
Yes. LakeList publishes a free interactive depth contour map of Spring Lake at a typical 5-foot interval, with an optional 3D underwater view, derived from LakeList depth model survey data.
Where does the Spring Lake depth map come from?
The interactive depth contours are derived from LakeList depth model. Each contour set passes a visual QA review against the source document before it is published. The depths are a modeled estimate calibrated to the lake's documented maximum depth - not a survey, and not for navigation.
