151-acre pond near Millsfield. NH GRANIT / NH Fish & Game survey water. The lake tops out around 10 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.
The drawn water covers 151 acres wrapped in 2 miles of bank. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.2) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.8 mi with a 0.4-mi widest point. Coos County claims this one. Munn Pond sits 5 mi southeast — the closest neighbouring chart.
Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 1 to 10 ft. Through summer count on 3 to 10 ft; the winter hold is 2 to 10 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 10 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 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (3 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (10 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |

Early season smallmouth bass use the shallows, holding in 3 to 10 ft. Even in summer they hold at 3 to 10 ft; winter keeps them in 3 to 10 ft. Put Main-lake point first on the milk run — a point near 3 ft that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a drop shot (goby/minnow) or a ned rig and you're in the game.
