22-acre lake near T4 R9 WELS. The lake tops out around 14 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.
Pogy Pond maps at 22 acres behind 1 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. End to end it runs roughly 0.4 mi. Piscataquis County claims this one. If the bite dies, Weed Pond is 1 mi to the east.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 14 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 4 to 14 ft, winter 2 to 14 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 12 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 14 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 4 to 14 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (12 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 14 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 14 ft | dawn | Deep basin (12 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Structure-wise the chart holds 4 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 12 ft.
