About Park Creek Pond

Park Creek Pond is a prized trout lake in the Douglas County Northwoods — cold, clear, and ideal for fly fishing, a intimate 9-acre lake reaching 7 feet at its deepest. Access is limited, which keeps boat traffic low — a plus for solitude seekers. Anglers primarily target Trout. Note that invasive species (Yellow Iris) have been documented here — clean your boat before leaving.

Bottom composition: 38% sand, 45% gravel, 2% rock, 15% muck

Fishing Tips

  • ·Trout hold in the deepest, coolest water during summer. Early morning stillwater fishing or bottom rigs near spring seeps is productive.
  • ·Bluegill and crappie stack up in 8–15 ft of water near weedlines. Small jigs tipped with a waxworm are hard to beat.
  • ·Panfish are often excellent for kids and beginners — look for them around any dock or submerged brush piles.
