14-acre lake near Johnson Mountain Twp. The lake tops out around 9 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 14 acres, worked by 0.8 miles of shoreline. With a 1.6 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. Nothing on this chart breaks 15 ft, which makes the whole surface littoral: weeds, bait and ambush cover everywhere. Figure 0.4 mi of water from one end to the other. It sits in Somerset County. Little Berry Pond sits 0 mi south — the closest neighbouring chart.
Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 9 ft. Even in summer they hold at 3 to 9 ft; winter keeps them in 1 to 9 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 8 ft that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 9 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 9 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (8 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 9 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
