Glen Lake in Leelanau County spans 4,800 acres and stands as one of Michigan's premier inland lake trout fisheries. The lake consists of two distinct sections—Big Glen and Little Glen—connected by channels beneath the M-22 bridge. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources actively manages Glen Lake as a recreational fishery, conducting annual stocking programs to maintain robust trout populations. Big Glen provides excellent opportunities for lake trout and rainbow trout, while Little Glen, being more shallow, has earned a reputation as a premier inland perch fishery. The lake supports a diverse ecosystem where stocked trout species coexist with thriving native populations of northern pike, Cisco, bluegill, sunfish, largemouth bass, and smallmouth bass.
