What Lady Slipper Lake is stocked with
Lady Slipper Lake is a mid-sized lake in Lyon County, Minnesota, covering about 251 acres with roughly 3.9 miles of shoreline on the USGS map. Minnesota DNR records show walleye released here. They went in as fry, which are stocked to grow into the fishery over later seasons rather than to be caught right away.
Walleye usually bite best in low light; a jig tipped with a minnow, a leech or a crawler harness is the standard approach. On a small water like this, much of the shoreline is within casting reach, so walk and try several spots.
Other waters close by on our map include School Grove Lake, Cottonwood Lake and Tyson Lake. Seasons, size limits and bag limits come from Minnesota DNR, so read their current rules before you keep fish. Tap Watch for stocking to get an email when new records appear.
