Dog Lake

Aerial view of Dog Lake, a 202 acre lake in Three Lakes, Wisconsin

Dog Lake is a 202-acre lake on the southern end of the Three Lakes Chain. As one of the smaller connecting basins, much of the boat traffic passing through is headed toward the larger neighboring lakes.

Its compact footprint and modest development give it a quieter, lower-wake feel compared to the chain’s busier hubs. Many owners appreciate it as a calm home bay with full chain access just a short idle away.

This is a summary based on available information.

Dog Lake carries the chain’s typical species mix, but its role as a small connector basin means panfish, bass, and pike are especially prominent, with muskies and walleyes moving through along channels and deeper cuts. Weedlines and channel edges are key areas, and many anglers treat Dog as a spot to make a few targeted passes on the way to or from larger nearby lakes. Shallow flats and inside turns can produce panfish and bass, while slightly deeper routes between basins hold roaming predators in low-light periods. For cabin owners, Dog Lake offers easy, close-in action with the option to slide into adjoining lakes whenever they want more space or a specific species focus.

I had AI give me the coordinates for the launches I had on file. They are not super accurate, but should give a rough idea of where you can find the landings. If no coordinates were available at all I didn't link to the map.
