Lake Puckaway is a 5,039-acre lake located in central Wisconsin, between Green Lake and Marquette counties. It is one of the largest lakes in the state and is known for its abundant fish population, particularly for walleye, northern pike, and bass. The lake is relatively shallow, with a maximum depth of only 5 feet, and it has a fairly irregular shape with many bays and channels that provide excellent fishing opportunities. It is also popular for boating, water skiing, and other water sports, and it has several public boat landings.

Lake Puckaway is surrounded by a mix of farmland, woods, and residential development, and it has several parks and recreation areas along its shores. The lake is also known for its abundant wildlife, including waterfowl, eagles, and other birds, as well as deer, foxes, and other mammals.

In addition to fishing and other water activities, Lake Puckaway is a popular destination for birdwatching, hiking, and other outdoor activities. Its location in central Wisconsin also makes it a convenient base for exploring other nearby lakes and attractions in the region.
