Very shallow from the dock. It's deep overall but with the weeds it's only a foot or two from the dock out about 15 or 20 feet where there appears to be a drop off. Pretty much impossible to cast a line from the dock without getting your lure snagged in the weeds. Btw there's a $10 lure with a metal leader about 10 feet away on a lily pad. Go nutz if you can get it. Take a boat, kayak, wader, or pontoon and you'll be fine. Didn't see any fish.

It has a pretty uniform depth of 16'

Tried it today, doesn't look deep enough to have survived the winter. Little minnows swimming around, that was the only sign of fish.

Was here today, lots of little fish, nothing bigger off the dock, so I never unloaded the float. Looks like a fun lake for winter? Maybe will have to try again this summer???

does anyone have or know of a topo map of this lake?

No action at all. Did not see any or see any jumping.

Anyone try ice fishing this lake this winter?

Lots of pan fry brook trout around this spot.

Hey fly girl can u give me any tips everytime I've fished rat in the winter all I've ever caught was tiny Brooks around six inches. Cheers

Rat lake is a very small pothole lake that doesn't winterkill. Some large brook trout reside here even though they don't stock it every year. Very good ice fishing here . Not crowded. Not many know about this lake or don't think its fishable.
