Fishing Red Hill Pond: what the data says

120-acre pond near Sandwich. NH GRANIT / NH Fish & Game survey water. 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.

Red Hill Pond maps at 120 acres behind 1.7 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. About 82% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. The basin spans about 0.6 mi end to end and 0.4 mi across at its widest. It sits in Carroll County. If the bite dies, LITTLE POND (CARROLL) is 1 mi to the south.

Brown Bullhead fishing at Red Hill Pond

When the water first warms, brown bullhead slide up into 2 to 8 ft. By summer they slide out to 3 to 12 ft, and by winter most fish are in 6 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 20 ft that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and the evening.

Season	Depth	Best window	Start at
Spring	2 to 8 ft	dusk & night	Shallow bay flat (5 ft)
Summer	3 to 12 ft	night & dusk	Shallow bay flat (5 ft)
Fall	5 to 15 ft	dusk	Shallow bay flat (5 ft)
Winter	6 to 20 ft	midday	Deep basin (20 ft)

Chain Pickerel fishing at Red Hill Pond

The spring pattern is a shallow one: chain pickerel in 2 to 10 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 3 to 15 ft before dropping to 5 to 18 ft for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 5 ft of water that rates prime for chain pickerel in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a weedless spoon + trailer or a buzzbait gets it done.

Spring	2 to 10 ft	midday & dawn	Shallow bay flat (5 ft)	Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon (red/white)
