30-acre lake near Davis Twp. The lake tops out around 23 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 drawn water covers 30 acres wrapped in 1 miles of bank. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.3) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 97% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.4 mi with a 0.2-mi widest point. Franklin County claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Kennebago Lake, is 3 mi to the northwest.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 7 to 23 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 21 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 | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 7 to 23 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (21 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (21 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
