Lake Lemon vs Wwl-01 Lake
Water quality, depth, fish species, and recreation comparison.
Wwl-01 Lake has a higher water quality grade (C, Fair) than Lake Lemon (F, Very Poor). Both are in Monroe County, Wisconsin.
Both Lake Lemon and Wwl-01 Lake sit in Indiana. A same-state comparison strips out the state-level water-quality regime as a variable: any grade differences here are about the lakes themselves, not the agencies grading them. Wwl-01 Lake (C) is materially cleaner than Lake Lemon (F). A gap that wide is unlikely to close in a single year of remediation work; it reflects multi-decade differences in the lakes themselves.
For a recreational visitor, the wider grade gap is decisive — Wwl-01 Lake is the better water-quality choice. For a researcher, the gap is the interesting part: what is different about the two watersheds, and which of those differences is mutable?
Lake Lemon
Very murky, less than 2.1 ft of visibility.
Wwl-01 Lake
Moderate clarity, visible to about 7.9 ft.
Side-by-Side Metrics
| Metric | Lake Lemon | Wwl-01 Lake |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Grade | F (Very Poor) | C (Fair) |
| Water Clarity | 2.1 ft | 7.9 ft |
| Phosphorus | No data | No data |
| Chlorophyll-a (Algae) | No data | 11.3 µg/L |
| Maximum Depth | - | - |
| Surface Area | 1.6K acres | 105.67 acres |
| Public Access | Unknown | Unknown |
| Fish Species | 0 | 0 |
| Trophic State | eutrophic | eutrophic |
Bold value = better for that metric (lower phosphorus / chlorophyll = cleaner; higher Secchi / depth / species count = better).
Verdict
Wwl-01 Lake wins on overall water quality with a Grade C versus Lake Lemon's Grade F. Water clarity: 7.9 ft vs 2.1 ft. For fishing diversity, Wwl-01 Lake also leads with 0 species.
