No member has posted conditions here lately. The gauge says what the water is doing; an angler who was standing in it says what that felt like.
Post a reportUSGS monitoring location 05205900, LEECH LAKE AT SUGAR POINT NEAR FEDERAL DAM, MN, 5.7 miles from the center of Leech Lake. Provisional data, subject to revision. Values refresh every 30 minutes. Readings describe the reservoir at the gauge; a shallow arm miles upstream will not match them.
Readings come from USGS monitoring location 05205900, LEECH LAKE AT SUGAR POINT NEAR FEDERAL DAM, MN, 5.7 miles from the center of Leech Lake. It reports gage height. Values refresh every 30 minutes and are provisional until the agency reviews them. Readings describe the reservoir at the gauge; a shallow arm miles upstream will not match them.
The gauge is half the picture. The other half is what came out of the water: verified catches, the current record, and the anglers holding it.
