15-acre pond near SULLIVAN. The lake tops out around 15 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. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Drawn out, this is 15 acres of water rimmed by 0.6 miles of bank. Its 1.1 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. The water lies in Cheshire County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Bolster Pond, 2 mi east of here.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 5 to 15 ft covers summer, 2 to 15 ft covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 15 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
