Lindberg Lake is a 92-acre lake located near the town of Clearbrook in Clearwater County. A public water access with an earthen ramp and parking for about 4 trucks/trailers is located on the east shore of the lake. Lindberg Lake is in lake class 33. Other class 33 lakes in the Bemidji area include Carr, Upper Lindgren, and Glanders Lake. Lindberg is more reminiscent of a prairie lake than a lake in the north woods. Bluegill are the primary species managed, while black crappie and walleye are managed as secondary species. Fishing pressure on Lindberg Lake is thought to be low.
Bluegill are the most sought after species of fish in Lindberg Lake. The 2010 population assessment showed a good population, with fish up to 9.9 inches in length present, and a large proportion of the population between 5.5 and 7.5 inches in length. These medium-size fish should grow to a size preferred by anglers in the next few years and provide some good fishing. Black crappie are present in the lake. Four age classes were identified in the sample. The largest black crappie captured was 10.0 inches in length. Walleye are also present in Lindberg Lake; however, 2010 catch rates were at an all-time low. Average size was 2.5 pounds (19.5 inches in length). The northern pike population has shown improvement since the 2005 assessment. Total numbers of pike captured were down, but the size structure of the population has moved toward larger fish. Like many lakes in the state, Lindberg has been dominated by high numbers of small northern pike, which can be a nuisance to anglers and problematic from a fisheries management standpoint. Since 2005, the average size of northern pike has nearly doubled to 3.0 pounds/fish, which is good news for anglers. Forty seven percent of northern pike captured were greater than 24.0 inches in length, and the largest pike sampled was 32.1 inches in length.
