Polk County is home to Island Lake, a mapped lake and the water facts we have show about 58 acres; a dependable maximum depth is not in the current record, which is the first thing I would want to know if a buddy asked me about this place.

I would let the first few spots tell me what kind of day it is going to be and I would build the day around shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank and I would take a couple of bites in one type of water over a dozen pretty spots with no life.

The species on record

I cannot give you a trustworthy species list for Island Lake from the current data; before i planned around a specific fish, i would check the latest exact-water dnr information, and before i start chasing random reports.

What I would do first

If I were putting together a simple plan for Island Lake, I would keep one shallow option and one deeper option ready so the day does not depend on a single idea, then I would confirm the current rules before the first fish ever comes over the side.
