37-acre lake near Holeb Twp. The lake tops out around 6 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Traced from the shoreline, Barrett Pond runs 37 acres with 1.2 miles of edge, with a single island in the mix. Its 1.4 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. Call it 0.4 mi long by 0.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. You'll find it in Somerset County. The nearest mapped water is Beattie Pond, 7 mi to the west.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 1 to 6 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 2 to 6 ft, and winter fish hold in 1 to 6 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 6 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
