Geography
Lake Skegemog has a surface area of Script error: No such module "convert". and 15 miles of shoreline.[1] The name 'Skegemog' is an Algonquin word which means "the meeting of the waters".[2]
It is part of the Elk River Chain of Lakes, a Script error: No such module "convert". waterway consisting of 14 lakes and connecting rivers which empty into Lake Michigan. The lake's primarily inflow is the Torch River, bringing in water from Torch Lake and elsewhere in the Chain of Lakes. The lake is connected at the west to Elk Lake, and through Elk Lake, water outflows through the short Elk River. The Elk River then empties into the East Arm of the Grand Traverse Bay, itself a bay of Lake Michigan.
The lake contains many stumps and logs which provide a nice living area for many species of fish. In addition, much of the surrounding land around the lake is covered in a swamp.
Fishing
The lake is home to many species of wild fish including muskellunge, walleye, brown trout, largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, rock bass, northern pike, yellow perch and crappie.[3]
