18-acre pond near ALSTEAD. The lake tops out around 40 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Traced from the shoreline, CALDWELL POND runs 18 acres with 0.8 miles of edge. Its 1.4 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. 57% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Figure 0.4 mi of water from one end to the other. You'll find it in Cheshire County. The nearest mapped water is Warren Lake, 3 mi to the north.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 12 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
