1,105-acre lake near T11 R13 WELS. The lake tops out around 48 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.
Shoreline on the chart totals 30.6 miles — 10 islands included. A development index of 4.5 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. 67% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 10 mi with a 2.4-mi widest point. Aroostook County claims this one. Umsaskis Lake sits 3 mi south — the closest neighbouring chart.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 10 to 30 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. Start at Chemquasabamticook Stream inflow. It's an inflow / creek mouth holding about 7 ft of water and rates prime come spring. 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 | Chemquasabamticook Stream inflow (7 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Chemquasabamticook Stream inflow (7 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Chemquasabamticook Stream inflow (7 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Chemquasabamticook Stream inflow (7 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Early season lake trout use the shallows, holding in 10 to 40 ft. Summer is a 14 to 48 ft game here, winter a 12 to 48 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 42 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (9 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 14 to 48 ft | dawn | Deep basin (42 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 10 to 48 ft | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (9 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 12 to 48 ft | dawn | Deep basin (42 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
Harvey Pond carries 9 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 42 ft down.
| Date | Species | Count | Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| May 6 | Brook Trout | 200 | ~9" |
