About this lake
A bigger, deeper Duck Mountain stillwater famous for massive brown trout that can push 30 inches. The ultra-clear water demands a stealthy approach, but the browns, rainbows, and stocked walleye reward the effort. It is listed as a stocked trout water with a boat launch off PR 367. Guide outfitters run stillwater fly trips here regularly.
