Sotak Flowage, also known as Pershing Wildlife Area #3, is a state-owned water resource in Taylor County, Wisconsin. This flowage is regulated by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WIDNR) and is situated on the TR Fisher River. Completed in 1965, the Earth dam stands at 9.3 feet high and has a hydraulic height of 7 feet, with a total length of 1180 feet. The flowage has a normal storage capacity of 200 acre-feet and a maximum storage of 320 acre-feet, covering an area of 85 acres.

With a low hazard potential and fair condition assessment, Sotak Flowage is a vital resource for water enthusiasts and climate activists in the region. The dam's controlled spillway, with a width of 42 feet, helps manage a maximum discharge of 50 cubic feet per second. Despite its very high risk assessment rating, the flowage's emergency action plan and risk management measures are currently under review. The flowage serves as a picturesque location for outdoor activities and wildlife observation, making it a valuable asset for both recreational and environmental purposes in the area.
