Briant Pond

[thomaskgrosvenor]

Sometime, a few days after Christmas, over my winter break, while I was out and about, I stopped at this pond called Briant Pond in the Summit/Millburn area. Not wasting too much time, I threw my bobber/jig set up all around the pond. It was not that small of a pond, but I am fairly certain that it could not have been more than a foot deep anywhere I casted.

Since the summer, I did a lot of fishing in different ponds and don't recall such a shallow pond of this size. Even though, by definition, ponds are shallower than lakes, the approximate 1 foot depth, even out towards the middle, struck me as unusual.

Does anyone know anything about this pond that they wouldn't mind sharing?
