26-acre pond near GILMANTON. The lake tops out around 25 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
ROLLINS POND maps at 26 acres behind 0.8 miles of shoreline. Its 1.1 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. About 46% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 0.3 mi long by 0.2 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Belknap County. Sanborn Pond sits 2 mi southwest — the closest neighbouring chart.
