Fishing LOVEWELL POND: what the data says

17-acre pond near NASHUA. The lake tops out around 12 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.

On the chart, LOVEWELL POND draws 17 acres inside 0.6 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank.
