14-acre pond near DIXVILLE. The lake tops out around 20 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
On the chart, NATHAN POND draws 14 acres inside 0.5 miles of shoreline. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 79% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. You'll find it in Coos County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Diamond Pond, 3 mi northwest of here.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 6 to 20 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 20 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
