25-acre lake near T4 R11 WELS. The lake tops out around 7 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
The outline encloses 24 acres, worked by 1.4 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (2) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end. Figure 0.4 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. Piscataquis County claims this one. Harrington Lake sits 2 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 1 to 7 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2 to 7 ft, winter 1 to 7 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 5 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 7 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 7 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (5 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 7 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 7 ft | dawn | Deep basin (5 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
