Comments:
The entire shoreline of this lake is owned by the St. Paul Water Utility, which restricts fishing on the lake to shore fishing only. Access to the area is closed during parts of the year.
Sucker Lake has a good fish population, but fishing is usually limited to the channel from Pleasant lake because of abundant growth of aquatic vegetation around much of the shoreline.
