History & Status of the Fishery
Indian Lake is a 204-acre, class 43 lake, located to the southwest of the City of Round Lake in Nobles County. Indian Lake has a maximum depth of 6.0 ft. Runoff from surrounding agricultural fields has resulted in poor water quality in Indian Lake. Despite its shallowness, Indian Lake rarely experiences low dissolved oxygen levels in the winter; however, during the winter of 2022 and 2023 Indian Lake experienced low dissolved oxygen levels throughout much of the winter (less than 0.6 ppm). Indian Lake is managed primarily for black and white crappie, and secondarily for walleye and northern pike. To evaluate the success of the Walleye fry stocking that was done in the spring of 2023, boat electrofishing was used to capture fingerling Walleye on September 21, 2023, to determine their abundance.
Following the winterkill Walleye fry were stocked because they typically do very well in these conditions. The catch rate of Young of the year Walleye was 672.0 per hour, suggesting that the stocking was highly successful. Lengths of YOY walleye ranged from 4.5 to 6.7 inches and averaged 5.3 inches. This abundant year class of a top-level predator should help keep undesirable species of fish in check.
