16-acre lake near Chase Stream 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Traced from the shoreline, Long Pond runs 16 acres with 1 miles of edge. Index 1.8 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. Call it 0.4 mi long. The water lies in Somerset County. The nearest mapped water is Island Pond, 2 mi to the east.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 14 ft. The depth story barely changes: 4 to 14 ft through summer, 2 to 14 ft in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 11 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 14 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 4 to 14 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (11 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 14 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 14 ft | dawn | Deep basin (11 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
