Bouder Lake is a 129 acres (52 ha) lake in Cook County, Minnesota and a tributary of the Poplar River.[1] Bouder Lake reaches a maximum depth of 17 feet (5.2 m) .[1] Bouder is accessible through a navigable channel leading into Crescent Lake.[1] A fisheries survey turned up populations of walleye, muskellunge, smallmouth bass, yellow perch, and white suckers.[1] An aquatic plants survey found the lake to be home to several species of water marigolds, pondweed, bladderwort, water lily, burreed, sedges, and cattails.[2]
