Rating depth structure for brook trout.
Shared by DepthScout anglers. Exact spots stay private, always.
57-acre lake near Beaver Cove. The lake tops out around 10 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The drawn water covers 57 acres wrapped in 1.6 miles of bank. With a 1.6 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. End to end it runs roughly 0.6 mi, about 0.3 mi across. It sits in Piscataquis County. If the bite dies, Fogg Pond is 1 mi to the southwest.
Spring brook trout on Mountain Pond hold shallow, usually 1 to 10 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 3 to 10 ft in summer, 2 to 10 ft once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 10 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 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 |
| Fall | 1 to 10 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 10 ft | dawn | Deep basin (10 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
