Lake Information for Osakis Lake
Lake Osakis is a 6,270-acre, very productive basin located along the border of Douglas and Todd counties in west-central Minnesota. The City of Osakis is located on the southwest shoreline. Productivity is high in response to extensive, well-vegetated shallows and excessive phosphorus levels. Fifty-four percent of the lake area is less than 15.0 ft in depth. Water clarity averages 6.8 ft. during open water months. Aquatic recreational uses can be seasonally or temporarily impaired due to algae blooms.
There are three public access points on the lake.
Lake Osakis supports a diverse fish community and offers a wide range of fishing opportunities. This basin is well known for its quality walleye fishery. It is also one of the few lakes in west-central Minnesota that consistently yields large bluegill and black crappie. Other species include largemouth bass, northern pike, bullhead, and rock bass.
