Lake Monona is a prime fishing spot right in the heart of Madison, WI! Covering 3,274 acres with a maximum depth of about 74 feet, this lake is part of the famous Madison Chain of Lakes. Anglers can expect to catch largemouth and smallmouth bass, northern pike, walleye, muskie, perch, bluegill, and crappie—making it a true multi-species destination.
💡 Fun Fact: The name “Monona” comes from a Native American word meaning “beautiful.” With the Madison skyline on one side and great fishing opportunities all around, it definitely lives up to its name!
