12-acre pond near DUMMER. The lake tops out around 10 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
DUMMER POND, LITTLE maps at 12 acres behind 0.5 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. Coos County claims this one. Dummer Pond, Big sits 1 mi north — the closest neighbouring chart.
Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 10 ft. Even in summer they hold at 3 to 10 ft; winter keeps them in 2 to 10 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 10 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (10 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (10 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 1 to 10 ft. Summer keeps them at 3 to 10 ft, and they winter in 1 to 10 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 10 ft, rated prime for summer brown trout. Time it for after dark and early morning. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.
