History & Status of the Fishery
Section 29 Lake is in Lake County about ten miles northeast of Isabella and is within the Superior National Forest. The public access is an earthen ramp located at the rustic campground off Forest Service Road 369, also known as Trappers Lake Road. The primary management species is Walleye which have been stocked in even-numbered years since the 1980's with varying success.
The standard fisheries survey completed in 2023 sampled just three Walleye for a catch rate of 0.75 per gill net, which was below the normal range for similar lakes. Catches from historic surveys have been below the normal range in five surveys and within the normal range in six surveys dating back to 1961. Results suggest fingerling stocking has not been particularly successful at consistently producing catches within the normal range for this type of lake.
The Northern Pike catch rate of 3.25 per gill net was within the normal range for similar lakes and near the long-term average from ten historic surveys of the lake. While most pike captured are small, some grow to quality size. Results confirm that natural reproduction continues to be sufficient to maintain the population and provide opportunities for anglers.
