Moody Lake

Moody Lake carries a solid B grade — strong on most parameters, with measurements that hold up well across the summer season. High phosphorus is the leading drag on the score — likely from upland agriculture, lawn runoff, or in-lake sediment release.

Mesotrophic conditions dominate at Moody Lake: enough nutrients for a healthy fishery, not so much that algal blooms become a chronic problem. 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. Moody Lake ranks 60 of 66 in Oconto County — at the lower end of the locally monitored distribution.

No invasive species are currently listed at Moody Lake — the lake remains off the Wisconsin infested-waters roster. The state fisheries records do not list documented species for Moody Lake, which usually reflects a lack of formal fisheries survey work rather than an empty lake. The grade is based on limited monitoring — fewer than three independent measurement years contribute, so future updates may shift the letter.
