Lake Mohawksin is a 1,515-acre public access lake in Lincoln County, created by the confluence of the Somo, Tomahawk, and Wisconsin rivers. This Tomahawk-area ramp features one paved launch lane with adequate parking (11-15 vehicle/trailer stalls) and a launch depth suitable for most boats. The lake reaches a maximum depth of 25 feet and is classified as eutrophic, meaning it has moderate weed growth and darker water conditions typical of northern Wisconsin lakes.
Paddlers and boaters should note that a **Boat Launch Pass is required** to access Lake Mohawksin—daily passes are available at drop boxes for $2/day. The lake supports fishing for musky, walleye, northern pike, largemouth and smallmouth bass, and panfish. With five public-access landings around the lake, this ramp offers a convenient entry point for kayaking, canoeing, and recreational boating in the area. Plan for variable water visibility due to the lake's water clarity characteristics.
