History & Status of the Fishery
Spring Lake is a small lake that supports a native bass, panfish, and pike community along with a few Walleyes. Results of the 2014 lake assessment indicate that the lake holds fair numbers of panfish such as Bluegill, Black Crappie, and Yellow Perch. Predatory fish like Northern Pike, Walleye and Largemouth Bass are also present although they are naturally not as abundant as their prey. Pike numbers were up in 2014 and the average size was good, as well, with a mean length of 24.4 inches and mean weight of 3.3 pounds. The modest Walleye fishery is sustained by stocking since Walleye do not reproduce naturally in this lake due to the lack of acceptable spawning and rearing habitat.
Even with good growth rates, in a small lake like Spring moderate amounts of fishing pressure can keep the average sizes of fish small unless anglers release a portion of the larger fish back into the lake. Due to its location in an area with fewer permanent fishing lakes, Spring Lake receives a moderate or higher amount of angling pressure. The lake's size and proximity to the city of Lengby make input of sediment and nutrients from human activities a concern. Although the lakeshore is not as heavily developed as those of many larger lakes, a 134-acre lake like Spring cannot sustain large nutrient loads without experiencing algal blooms and other symptoms of nutrient enrichment. Watershed residents need to be aware that what they do on their lands may affect water quality in the lake. Maintaining or improving the lake's current water quality and habitat conditions can benefit all users of this lake.
