Tyson Lake is a 166-acre public access lake in Yellow Medicine County, Minnesota, offering a convenient boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and motorboaters. The lake has a maximum depth of 8 feet, making it suitable for recreational paddling and fishing. The public boat launch accommodates most standard recreational boats (typically 12-18 feet), and there are no launch fees at this access point.
This is a family-friendly destination popular with anglers targeting walleye, yellow perch, and black bullhead. The smaller size and shallow depth of Tyson Lake make it ideal for beginners and those seeking a quieter paddling experience.
