11-acre pond near CONWAY. The lake tops out around 20 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. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
On the chart, DOLLOF POND draws 11 acres inside 0.5 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 69% of this chart. The water lies in Carroll County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Pea Porridge Pond, Big, 1 mi west of here.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 5 to 20 ft. Summer keeps them at 5 to 20 ft, and they winter in 4 to 20 ft. Winter rainbow trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 13 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
