23-acre lake near Upper Enchanted 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The drawn water covers 23 acres wrapped in 0.8 miles of bank. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.2) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. The basin spans about 0.3 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. Somerset County claims this one. If the bite dies, Spencer Lake is 3 mi to the west.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 1 to 9 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 3 to 9 ft, winter 1 to 9 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 9 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 9 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 9 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (9 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 9 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 9 ft | dawn | Deep basin (9 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
