Spray Lake
A small, crystal-clear Duck Mountain lake with walleye and pike that rewards sight-fishing in spring. The little red-and-white Five of Diamonds spoon is a local legend here. Walleye are periodically boosted with fry from the Beautiful Lake transfer program. It has a canoe/small-boat launch, angling dock, and hiking trail, and it is ideal for a quiet half-day trip.
