WISCONSIN LAKES-PUB-FM-800 99Rev.

Back to WI Lakes Book Index.

Preface

This booklet is a public reference for Wisconsin lakes. It provides information on the physical attributes of lakes such as the size, depth, type of public access, availability of lake maps, the relative abundance of fish species, and information about fish consumption advisories.

Observations and data collected in the 1950s and 1960s by Department of Natural Resources field staff form the base of information for this publication. Continual field work and input from staff and the public over the years provide updates on changing conditions of some, but not all lakes listed herein.

This publication will be updated periodically, to reflect the most current information available on Wisconsin's lakes. Please notify the DNR field station nearest you if you are aware of any omissions, errors, or changes that require attention in the next edition of Wisconsin Lakes.
