Rating depth structure for brook trout.

224-acre lake near Allagash. 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 follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
On the chart, Falls Pond draws 224 acres inside 3.6 miles of shoreline. Index 1.7 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Figure 1.2 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.5 mi at the beam. The water lies in Aroostook County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Little Falls Pond, 2 mi northwest of here.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 1 to 7 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2 to 7 ft covers summer, 1 to 7 ft covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 7 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.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 7 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 7 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (7 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 7 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (1 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 7 ft | dawn | Deep basin (7 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
