6,916-acre lake near Lincoln PLT. The lake tops out around 63 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 6,905 acres, worked by 62.8 miles of shoreline, with 30 islands in the mix. The 5.4 development index tells the story — a convoluted bank whose fishable edge far outruns the acreage. Roughly 24% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. Call it 13.5 mi long by 3.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Oxford County. Parmachenee Lake sits 9 mi north — the closest neighbouring chart.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. By summer they slide out to 10 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 15 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (11 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
