Welcome to Henderson Lake in Lupton, Michigan

​Lake Health Management: The overall health of Henderson Lake continues to be A-Rated!  In large part because of funding from the Special Assessment District which provides funding for aquatic management of our lake.  Invasive species of weeds (Eurasian Water Milfoil, Starry Stonewort, Curly Leaf Pondweed, etc.) found anywhere in the lake, and nuisance weeds only along the developed shoreline out to five feet of water depth are being treated. Please see HendersonLake.org for downloadable copies of all the various reports and studies.

Loon Report: The Loons nested again this year several hundred feet east of Diehl’s single dock at the south end of the lake.  They hatched a single chick (we occasionally get two) who appears to be doing well.   As of this writing, all three are still fishing / feeding all around the lake. Please caution your guests to stay several hundred feet away from the loons.

Fishing Report:   Our second Catch & Release Bass Fishing Tournament & Fundraiser on Saturday morning, June 10 was a positive event.  In all there were 13 adults, and three 14-and-under entries. After the fishing prize and 50/50 raffle payouts the Club netted $185, all of which will be used for fish stocking of the lake.

Hold the date of Saturday, February 17 for the 2024 Winter Ice Party and Fishing Tournament.  As further plans are developed, they will be posted to our Henderson Lake Group on Facebook and to HendersonLake.org. The 2023 event netted over $5,400 for the purchase of fish stock for the lake.

  • Practice CATCH AND RELEASE!  Please don't keep all that you catch.
  • Please do not blow grass clippings or fall leaves into the lake.They add to the vegetation load which the Weed Control Program is in-part trying to combat.
  • Keep a rake-by-the-lake to remove / clean-up weeds that wash ashore.  Milfoil spreads by fragmentation, so get weed fragments away from the water.
