Jennie Weber Lake

On the scoring rubric Jennie Weber Lake grades a D: clarity at 4.9 ft and phosphorus readings still being added keep it in the lower bracket for Oneida County. Clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a all rate similarly, so there is no obvious single lever to pull on watershed management.

Eutrophic conditions are the baseline here: clarity drops noticeably in late summer, and dissolved oxygen near the bottom can become a concern. At only 8 ft deep, Jennie Weber Lake is shallow — wind keeps the water column mixed and sediment resuspension drives phosphorus levels harder to manage. Jennie Weber Lake covers 237 acres alongside partial shoreline records — a mid-sized water that supports a working fishery without being so large that conditions diverge between basins. Jennie Weber Lake ranks 140 of 140 in Oneida County — at the lower end of the locally monitored distribution.

An invasive species record — Chinese Mystery Snail — has been logged at Jennie Weber Lake; Wisconsin DNR maintains the official infested-waters list. The fishery includes walleye alongside the lake's other 4 documented species — a notable draw for Wisconsin anglers. Public access is available — the lake is on the Wisconsin DNR public-access list. The grade is based on limited monitoring — fewer than three independent measurement years contribute, so future updates may shift the letter.
