236-acre lake near T5 R7 WELS. The lake tops out around 13 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.
Drawn out, this is 236 acres of water rimmed by 5.3 miles of bank, with 2 islands in the mix. With a shoreline index of 2.5, this water is all arms and coves — edge habitat well beyond its acreage. Nothing on this chart breaks 15 ft, which makes the whole surface littoral: weeds, bait and ambush cover everywhere. Tip to tip the water measures near 1.7 mi with a 0.7-mi widest point. You'll find it in Penobscot County. The nearest mapped water is Hay Lake, 4 mi to the northwest.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 13 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 4 to 13 ft, and winter fish hold in 2 to 13 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 13 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
