This ensures the long-term health of the lake and consistent water levels for recreation. In the summer, residents and visitors can look forward to long days of water activities, fishing, sun-tanning, barbecuing, and pelican watching. The fun doesn\u2019t stop when it snows; Gull Lake is known for its excellent ice-fishing.
