Bisby Lakes

First Lake is the northernmost major lake in the Bisby Lakes, and is solely fed by rainfall. It drains southwest via an unnamed creek which flows into Second Lake. The lake is 152 acres in size.[3] There are a small number of residencies and piers on all sides of the lake. Bisby Lodge, a small cabin for which the lakes are named is on the east bank of the lake. First Lake has the most settlements of all of the Bisby Lakes.

Second Lake is the third northernmost major lake in the Bisby Lakes, fed by inflow from First Lake and Chamber Lake, which are both upstream from Second Lake. The lake is 117 acres in size.[4] On the northern edge of the lake, the creek from First Lake is bridged by Bisby Road. Two islands sit in the northern half of the lake. The small inlet on the west bank of the lake is named Deer Bay.

Third Lake is a smaller lake towards the middle of the Bisby Lakes. The lake is fed through a channel from Second Lake. Third Lake flows into Fourth Lake and Sand Lake. With a size of 43 acres, Third Lake is the smallest major lake in the Bisby Lakes.[5] There are a pair of small islands in the north half of the lake.

Fourth Lake is the southernmost major lake in the Bisby Lakes. The lake is fed by Woodhull creek, from Third Lake and Second Lake. The lake drains into Woodhull Creek. The lake is 62 acres in size.[6] There is a small inlet on the northwest bank of the Lake.

Woodhull lake is the largest and easternmost of the Bisby Lakes. With a size of 1088 acres, Woodhull Lake makes up over half of the surface area of the combined Bisby Lakes.[7] The lake also contains the largest island in the Bisby Lakes, Big Island, which is on the northern arm of the lake. Brooktrout Point and Remson Point are the two peninsulas on opposite sides of the lake, in the southern half of the lake. There are a couple scattered piers on all sides of the lake.

Sand Lake is a smaller lake to the south of Woodhull Lake. Woodhull Lake and Third lake both flow into Sand Lake. There are a couple island of varying sizes in the north half of the lake, and an archipelago of small islands in the bottom half of the lake. The lake is 312 acres in size.[8]

Canachagala Lake is the easternmost lake, and is fed by Canachagala Creek. The lake is 336 acres in size.[9] The lake is completely uninhabited, unlike the more western Bisby Lakes. The lake feds into Golden Stair Creek, also unlike the other Bisby Lakes, which ultimately drain into Woodhull Creek.
