Munn Lake has a surface area of approximately 30 acres and reaches a depth of about 19 feet.  It is open year-round.  The lake offers excellent fishing for rainbow trout 10-20" and the occasional Brown Trout.  The lake also supports naturally reproducing Largemouth Bass, Yellow Perch, Bluegill Sunfish, and Black Crappie.  The use of bait and internal combustion motors is prohibited on Munn Lake.

Proven methods for targeting Rainbow Trout include fishing multiple chironomid imitations suspended from a float or trolling artificial flies/spinners.  Brown Trout can be found on the margins of the lake in shaded areas.  Shore fishing access is limited to the area around the boat launch.

There is a WDFW access with boat launch and one toilet.
