State of Wisconsin Regulations

  • Heed all state and local boating and fishing regulation and visit Wisconsin DNR or boating regulations. 
  • Boats without motors always have the right of way.
  • Personal watercraft (jet skis) are restricted to slow - NO WAKE within 200 feet of the shoreline.

Town of Spider Lake Regulations

  • Shoreline homeowners with private launch ramps should thoroughly search for and remove any vegetation or marine life on watercraft and trailers launched at their landing site.
  • Water skis may be used between 11:00 am and 3:00 pm only. This includes all "towed activities" such as skiing, tubing and wake boarding/surfing. The spirit of this Town of Spider Lake ordinance is to provide peace and quiet, with no wake outside designated ski hours. It was originally created to protect the lake for fishing and quiet sports. Please respect this ordinance so that ALL citizens can find joy here.
  • Boats and personal watercraft (jet skis) have a 10 mph speed limit prior to 11:00 a.m and after 3:00 pm.
  • Boats are limited to Slow-NO WAKE within 100 feet of the shoreline.
  • Users of picnic areas are required to clean up after each use.

Please refer to the Town of Spider Lake Ordinances for additional detail: Boating Ordinance 02-2024

WAKE BOAT SURFING

To protect lakes such as Lake Owen and Round Lake, and based on a wide array of research and town surveys of residents, the towns of Cable, Drummond and Round Lake, with the support of their lake associations, have restricted wake boat surfing. Town of Spider Lake (TOSL) Supervisors are reviewing a recommendation to do the same.  See the summary of the recommendation by the TOSL Boating Ordinance Ad Hoc Committee on the Member News page of this website or the full recommendation of 2/20/25 on the town website agendas & minutes here.  For a copy of the ordinance passed in 2024 by Drummond (for Lake Owen), click here.

Protect Lake Wildlife

  • Water skiers (and tubers or wake boarders/surfers) and personal watercraft (jet skis) should stay in the middle of the lake to avoid sensitive wildlife areas.
  • Avoid making wakes around weed beds and along the shorelines.
  • Be respectful of the loons whose habitat we share.

Thank you for making Spider Lake safe and enjoyable for all!
