History & Status of the Fishery

Ann Lake is a popular fishing lake located three miles south of Howard Lake in Wright County. The 386-acre lake has a maximum depth of 18.5 feet and a ten-year mean water clarity of 3.3 feet. There is one public access located on the west side.

The Walleye fishery of Ann Lake has been managed by stocking since the mid-1970s. Walleye fry were stocked every other year from the mid-1970s until 2012 with supplemental fingerling stocking on a contingency basis. After multiple failed fry stockings from 2003-2010, the primary stocking strategy changed to fingerling stocking (1lb./LA) every other fall starting in 2013. While DNR does not stock fry in the lake anymore, the lake association supplementally stocked Walleye fry on occasion. Most recently in 2016 and 2018.

In 2023, 303,000 surplus Walleye fry from the New London Fish Hatchery were stocked in Ann Lake as an experiment to see if a year class could be produced. Unfortunately, only three young of the year (YOY) Walleye were sampled, indicating that the fry stocking was not successful. Fingerling Walleye were then stocked in the fall of 2023 in accordance with the pre-established management plan.

This lake has some real problems with algae and heavy weed growth. Tried to fish it but our tackle, boat and trailer got plastered with green goo (algae,duckweed etc. This is probably typical of a lake with this type of agricultural watershed basin. Thankfully we have 14,999 other choices. CHEERS!!
