Wisconsin DNR fisheries surveys

Ebert Lake FishingNRNot rated for water quality

Wisconsin DNR lists Panfish as common on Ebert Lake. In Portage County, Wisconsin, Ebert Lake has no letter grade — no nutrient or algae measurement meets the evidence bar (at least 3 samples within 10 years). Water clarity averages 21.0 feet of visibility. The survey figures on this page are Wisconsin DNR's own; the water-quality grade comes from EPA Water Quality Portal samples. Neither is a forecast of today's bite.

Common questions

What fish are in Ebert Lake?

Wisconsin DNR lists Panfish as common on Ebert Lake. Wisconsin DNR lists 3 species for the lake in total. Those are survey results, not a catch report: a net set on one date measures what was in that net.

When was Ebert Lake last surveyed?

Is Ebert Lake stocked?

No stocking record for Ebert Lake appears in the Wisconsin DNR material on file. That is not the same as a confirmed unstocked lake: it means no stocking document was published for it in the records this page draws on.

Does the water-quality grade tell me how Ebert Lake fishes?

A DNR fisheries survey reports fish abundance and catch rates, not a water-quality grade. LakeQuality does not assign an A–F grade on Ebert Lake — official chemistry is on file, not a letter. Catch rate is not a swim clearance and is not a weekly bite report.

Before you eat what you catch

A water-quality grade is not a consumption advisory. Mercury and PCB advice for Wisconsin waters comes from WI DNR/DHS, and it is issued per species and per size class — a lake can grade well and still carry a meal limit on larger predator fish.
