Huntingburg Lake depth map

Huntingburg Lake in Dubois County, Indiana reaches a depth of 21 feet. Huntingburg Lake is charted here across 10 closed depth contours, from the 1 ft line down to 19 ft, enclosing about 151 acres of water. Half of that water lies inside the 9 ft line, and only 2.5 acres lie inside the deepest one. Every contour is on the interactive map below, free and without an account.

Acreages are computed from the closed Indiana DNR Lake Bathymetry contour rings, with islands subtracted. Shares are of the 151 acres inside the outermost charted contour (the 1 ft line), which is the outer edge of the mapped water, several state files carry no 0 ft shoreline line, so this is not the same as a share of the lake's published surface area. The survey also records a 21 ft sounding, marked as a point rather than a closed contour, so it is not charted as a band.

Fishing Huntingburg Lake: an evenly graded bottom

Inside its outermost 1 ft contour the survey charts about 151 acres of Huntingburg Lake, with the 9 ft line enclosing half of it, so the bottom falls away at a steady rate rather than shelving off or dropping in one step. The sharpest change on the chart is between 5 and 7 ft, where the mapped water loses 24 acres in 2 ft of depth, that band is the contour to work first, because it is where the bottom stops being flat. 2.5 acres, 1.6% of the mapped water, lie inside the deepest 19 ft contour, toward the northern end of the lake. Topping out at 21 ft, weed growth structures this water more than depth does, but the 2.5-acre deep spot still concentrates fish in the heat of summer, and the one-contour depressions on the chart are the ones most anglers row straight over.

Huntingburg Lake depth map FAQs

How deep is Huntingburg Lake?
Huntingburg Lake reaches a maximum depth of 21 feet in the Indiana DNR Lake Bathymetry survey. Most of it is far shallower: the survey charts 10 closed depth contours over about 151 acres, and half of that water sits inside the 9 ft line. The 21 ft figure is a single recorded sounding rather than a closed contour, so the deepest line you can actually trace on the map is 19 ft.
Where is the deepest part of Huntingburg Lake?
The deepest charted water on Huntingburg Lake lies inside the 19 ft contour, toward the northern end of the lake. That contour encloses 2.5 acres, 1.6% of the mapped water, so it is a small target on a small water, the depth chart above gives the contour to line up on.
How much of Huntingburg Lake is shallower than 9 feet?
About half. The 9 ft contour encloses 73 acres of the roughly 151 acres inside the outer 1 ft line, so the other half of the water is shallower than 9 feet. The sharpest drop is between 5 and 7 feet, where the mapped water sheds 24 acres.
How accurate is this Huntingburg Lake depth map?
The contours come from the Indiana DNR Lake Bathymetry survey, retrieved August 2026 and last rebuilt on August 19, 2026. Depths change over time with water levels and sediment, so treat this map as a planning guide for fishing, and never use it for navigation. Per Indiana DNR, the data are graphical representations for reference only, not a survey instrument. Acreages are computed from the published contour geometry, not from a separate area survey, so read them as close approximations.
