View of Lake Content, the 239 acre lake in St. Germain, Wisconsin

Its close-to-town setting makes it convenient for year-round use, rentals, and quick weekend trips. Buyers who prioritize chain access and location over water clarity often find Lake Content to be a practical, easy-access option.

Lake Content contour map

This is a summary based on available information.

Lake Content shares in the Big St. Germain Chain’s multi‑species fishing, with walleyes, panfish, bass, and pike using its deeper pockets and weed growth. The darker water often lets fish stay shallower and more aggressive than on very clear lakes, so anglers can lean on spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and jigs along weedlines and points during the day. Chain connectivity allows fish to move freely, so productive patterns can develop around current, wind, and bait movement between connected lakes. For many owners, it serves as a convenient “home bay” that also offers easy runs to clearer water nearby.

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.
