Myers Lake depth map
Myers Lake in Marshall County, Indiana reaches a depth of 50 feet. Myers Lake is charted here across 5 closed depth contours, from the 10 ft line down to 50 ft, enclosing about 54 acres of water. Half of that water lies inside the 40 ft line, and only 7.7 acres lie inside the deepest one. Every contour is on the interactive map below, free and without an account.

| Depth contour | Water inside it | Share of mapped water |
|---|---|---|
| 10 ft | 54 acres | 100% |
| 20 ft | 46 acres | 85% |
| 30 ft | 36 acres | 67% |
| 40 ft | 22 acres | 42% |
| 50 ft | 7.7 acres | 14% |
Acreages are computed from the closed Indiana DNR Lake Bathymetry contour rings, with islands subtracted. Shares are of the 54 acres inside the outermost charted contour (the 10 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.
Fishing Myers Lake: steep sides for its size
About 54 acres of Myers Lake sit inside the survey's 10 ft contour, and half of that water is already gone by the 40 ft line: depth comes quickly here, with no long shallow margin before the bottom drops away. The steepest break on the chart runs from 40 down to 50 ft: 14 acres of bottom fall away across 10 ft there, which makes that band the first contour to work. The deepest 50 ft contour holds 7.7 acres, 14% of the mapped water, toward the western side of the lake. Nothing here reaches a true cold-water layer at 50 ft, so structure does the thermocline's work: the points and inside turns where the 40 and 50 ft lines pinch together fish hardest in early season, and again as fish follow bait back down in autumn.
Ice fishing on Myers Lake
At 50 ft, Myers Lake is a workable ice depth: deep enough to hold fish all winter without the slow freeze-up of a big basin. Start on the 50 ft hole, 7.7 acres of it, at first light, then move up onto the 40–50 ft break as the sun gets up, and fish the flats inside the 40 ft line through the middle of the day. Check ice thickness locally before you walk out.
Myers Lake depth map FAQs
- How deep is Myers Lake?
- Myers Lake reaches a maximum depth of 50 feet in the Indiana DNR Lake Bathymetry survey. Most of it is far shallower: the survey charts 5 closed depth contours over about 54 acres, and half of that water sits inside the 40 ft line.
- Where is the deepest part of Myers Lake?
- The deepest charted water on Myers Lake lies inside the 50 ft contour, toward the western side of the lake. That contour encloses 7.7 acres, 14% 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 Myers Lake is shallower than 40 feet?
- About half. The 40 ft contour encloses 22 acres of the roughly 54 acres inside the outer 10 ft line, so the other half of the water is shallower than 40 feet. The sharpest drop is between 40 and 50 feet, where the mapped water sheds 14 acres.
- How accurate is this Myers 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.
