The State of Alabama in the UNITED STATES maintains a constellation of public lakes throughout its territory. The map below shows how public county lakes are present in 21 counties located in various geographic regions. There are indeed public lakes in some other Alabamian counties that are not blue-shaded, but this map indicates the 21 counties that have at least one lake with "public county lake" or "county lake" in its name.
In alphabetical order, the 21 blue-shaded counties are Barbour, Bibb, Chambers, Clay, Coffee, Conecuh, Crenshaw, Dale, Dallas, DeKalb, Escambia, Fayette, Geneva, Lamar, Lee, Madison, Marion, Monroe, Pike, Walker, and Washington. Marengo County used to be part of the state’s county-lake system, but the 40-acre public lake is now “privately owned” according to the Marengo Lake Web Page (↗). Fish icons for county public lakes — except for Concecuh County — are displayed in the 2017-2018 Alabama Official Transportation Map.
