Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 26 ft, then a winter hold in 3 to 20 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 26 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
