Lk Superior .63 Mi Wsw of Fisher Creek Mouth Lake
Douglas County, WisconsinLimited DataEutrophic
Lk Superior .63 Mi Wsw of Fisher Creek Mouth Lake earns a C — middle-of-the-pack water quality, with one or two parameters dragging the average down from a stronger grade. The three sub-grades — clarity, phosphorus, and chlorophyll-a — track close together, so no single parameter is dragging the average.
At a TSI of 55, Lk Superior .63 Mi Wsw of Fisher Creek Mouth Lake reads as eutrophic — nutrient-rich enough that summer algal growth and reduced clarity are expected, not unusual. The lake's maximum depth is not yet documented in state morphometric records — context for its physical structure remains limited. The lake's surface area is not consistently recorded across state datasets — physical context remains partial. Within the 40 graded lakes of Douglas County, Lk Superior .63 Mi Wsw of Fisher Creek Mouth Lake sits at rank 34, near the bottom of the county list.
Lk Superior .63 Mi Wsw of Fisher Creek Mouth Lake has no invasive species recorded in Wisconsin state databases as of 2022, though prevention practices still apply at all access points. The state fisheries records do not list documented species for Lk Superior .63 Mi Wsw of Fisher Creek Mouth Lake, which usually reflects a lack of formal fisheries survey work rather than an empty lake. Monitoring depth is thin here: the LakeGrade rubric is applied to a small number of sample years, and the grade will be revised as more data accumulates.
