Little Trout Lake

Little Trout Lake offers a paved public boat ramp for convenient access to this 1,007-acre lake in Vilas County. The lake features a maximum depth of 98 feet with a mean depth of 25 feet, making it suitable for kayaking, canoeing, and motorized boating. Before launching, check the boat ramp for any local regulations that may be more restrictive than state law, as Wisconsin waterways often have specific ordinances.

The lake supports populations of musky, walleye, trout, and bass species, making it popular with anglers. Motorized boating is permitted with standard Wisconsin regulations (motor trolling allowed with 1 hook per angler, 3 maximum per boat). Paddlers should be aware of potential motor traffic on this larger lake. For current fishing regulations and licensing information, consult the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, or call (800) 847-9367 to report violations.
