29-acre lake near Campobello Parish. Government of New Brunswick lake depth survey. The lake tops out around 6 ft. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Lake Glensevern maps at 29 acres behind 2.2 miles of shoreline. The 2.9 development index tells the story — a convoluted bank whose fishable edge far outruns the acreage. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Figure 0.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. Charlotte County claims this one. If the bite dies, Johnson Bay is 4 mi to the west.
Early season smallmouth bass use the shallows, holding in 1 to 5.9 ft. Even in summer they hold at 2 to 5.9 ft; winter keeps them in 2 to 5.9 ft. Put Main-lake point first on the milk run — a point near 6 ft that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a drop shot (goby/minnow) or a ned rig and you're in the game.

Spring puts chain pickerel in skinny water — 1 to 5.9 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 5.9 ft, and winter fish hold in 2 to 5.9 ft. Spring chain pickerel concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 3 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A weedless spoon + trailer or a buzzbait covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 5.9 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon (red/white) |

In spring, yellow perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 5.9 ft. Summer keeps them at 2 to 5.9 ft, and they winter in 2 to 5.9 ft. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 3 ft, rated prime for spring yellow perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 5.9 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |
| Summer | 2 to 5.9 ft | dawn | Deep basin (5 ft) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small spoon tipped with worm |
| Fall | 2 to 5.9 ft | midday | Deep basin (5 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Perch rig / spreader |
| Winter | 2 to 5.9 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (5 ft) | Tungsten jig + spikes, Rattle spoon (small) |
Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 1 to 5.9 ft. Through summer count on 2 to 5.9 ft; the winter hold is 1 to 5.9 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 5 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 5.9 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
