History & Status of the Fishery
Lannon is a shallow, winterkill prone lake located near the city of Graceville in west-central Minnesota. US highway 75 divides it into east and west basins. The west basin is connected to East Toqua Lake by a culvert through County Road 20. Fish movement occurs among the three basins and fish assemblages are somewhat similar.
Lannon Lake can provide valuable spawning and nursery habitat for East Toqua, especially for northern pike during springs with sufficient water levels. Public access is limited to carry-in areas along U.S. Highway 75.
Yellow perch were abundant in 2014. The majority were around six inches, but fish up to 11 inches were present. Anglers can expect the perch to measure 9-10 inches by fall, 2015.
Northern pike were moderately abundant and measured 14-29 inches. Although pike grow quickly in Lannon Lake, they tend to be short lived due to a lack of a cool water refuge. Few pike have been sampled older than age three.
Black crappie and walleye were caught in low numbers. Walleye fry are stocked annually to maintain the population and in an attempt to reduce recruitment of carp and bullheads through predation.
Other fish species sampled included moderate numbers of black and yellow bullhead, and common carp, as well as low numbers of bigmouth buffalo and white sucker. Bullheads were caught up to 11 inches.
