8-acre lake near T15 R9 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.
Little Black Pd North maps at 8 acres behind 0.4 miles of shoreline. At index 1.1 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Aroostook County claims this one. Black Pond sits 1 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 13 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 4 to 13 ft, winter 2 to 13 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 12 ft of water and rates prime come summer. 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 13 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 4 to 13 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (12 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 13 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 13 ft | dawn | Deep basin (12 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
