Water clarity
3.5 ft Secchi depthLowOlder reading
Last measured Dec 22, 2007. 10 readings on record, 2007.

Measured at the monitoring station named “EAST TROY LAKE - DEEPEST SPOT”.
Secchi depth is how far down a white disk stays visible. A bigger number means clearer water. Clear means a Secchi depth of 10 feet or more, moderate 5 to 10 feet, low under 5 feet.
