Rating depth structure for brook trout.
Shared by DepthScout anglers. Exact spots stay private, always.
24-acre lake near Comstock Twp. The lake tops out around 14 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Drawn out, this is 23 acres of water rimmed by 1 miles of bank. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.5) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Figure 0.4 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. The water lies in Somerset County. For a second option, Foley Pond lies 1 mi southeast.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 14 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 4 to 14 ft, and winter fish hold in 2 to 14 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 13 ft, rated prime for summer brook trout. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
