15-acre lake near Greenville. The lake tops out around 6 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.
The outline encloses 14 acres, worked by 0.6 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.2), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. End to end it runs roughly 0.3 mi. Piscataquis County claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Upper Wilson Pond, is 2 mi to the southeast.
Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 1 to 6 ft. Through summer count on 2 to 6 ft; the winter hold is 1 to 6 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 6 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 6 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 6 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (6 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 6 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 6 ft | dawn | Deep basin (6 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
