194-acre pond near Wentworths Location. NH GRANIT / NH Fish & Game survey water. The lake tops out around 100 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Traced from the shoreline, Greenough Pond runs 194 acres with 2.3 miles of edge. Its 1.2 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 17% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Figure 1 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.5 mi at the beam. The water lies in Coos County. For a second option, Greenough Pond, Little lies 1 mi northeast.
Spring puts largemouth bass in skinny water — 2 to 10 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 20 ft, wintering in 15 to 35 ft. Spring largemouth bass concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated feeding flat around 5 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A texas-rigged 10" worm or a deep-diving crankbait covers the summer program.
