About This Access Site
Poskin Lake is a 154-acre public access lake located in Almena, Barron County, offering a public boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The lake has a maximum depth of 30 feet and features a boat landing with carry-in access available for paddlers. The water clarity is low, so paddlers should be prepared for reduced visibility and plan accordingly for navigation and safety.

The lake supports a healthy fishery including Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Northern Pike, and Walleye, making it popular with anglers as well as recreational paddlers. Poskin Lake is a good option for paddlers seeking a modest-sized lake in northwestern Wisconsin with established public access infrastructure.
