14-acre lake near T10 R10 WELS. The lake tops out around 7 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Traced from the shoreline, Peaked Mountain Pond runs 14 acres with 0.8 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.5) — enough points and pockets to pattern. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. The basin spans about 0.3 mi end to end. The water lies in Piscataquis County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Little Pleasant Pond, 1 mi northwest of here.
In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 1 to 7 ft. Summer keeps them at 2 to 7 ft, and they winter in 1 to 7 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 7 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 7 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 7 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (7 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 7 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 7 ft | dawn | Deep basin (7 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
4 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 7 ft, is the deepest of them.
