What aquatic invasive species are found in Leon Lake?
Join us in the fight to prevent the spread of invasive species These sneaky creatures can hitch a ride on boats, clinging onto propellers, anchor lines, and trailers. They can even survive in hidden places like bilge water and ballast tanks, or disguise themselves in dirt and sand that sticks to nets, buckets, anchors, and waders.

History & Status of the Fishery
Testnetting catch data indicate that northern pike, bluegill, and yellow perch numbers are above both statewide and area medians. Northern pike fishing is good to excellent with small size being the major complaint. Bluegill fishing is excellent, but fish are also small in size. Black crappie fishing is seasonally excellent, with 0.5-2.0 lb. fish being caught. With no developed public access available to Leon Lake, it has limited fishing pressure.
