20-acre lake near Prentiss Twp T4 R4 NBKP. The lake tops out around 28 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
The outline encloses 20 acres, worked by 1.1 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 85% of this chart. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.4 mi with a 0.2-mi widest point. Somerset County claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Mary Petuche Pond, is 0 mi to the northeast.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. Summer is an 8 to 28 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 26 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.
