History & Status of the Fishery
Lake Rebecca, a remnant of an abandoned channel of the adjacent Mississippi river, is entirely encompassed by Lake Rebecca Park, owned by the City of Hastings and the US Army Corps of Engineers. Rebecca Lake is aerated in the winter. Water quality of the lake is poor as a result of nutrient loading from storm sewers, street runoff and influxes from the Mississippi River and nearby agricultural activities. Surface water zoning prohibits all but electric motors on the lake. Facilities in the park include a boat landing, fishing pier and wharf, walking trails along with Porta Potties and a picnic area. Extensive shore fishing areas can also be found at Rebecca Lake. The lake is frequently inundated by flood waters of the Mississippi and the fish population reflects the influence that flooding events can have on adjacent waters.
