Batterson Park Pond depth map
Batterson Park Pond in Farmington, Connecticut reaches a depth of 18 feet. Batterson Park Pond is charted here across 7 closed depth contours, from the 0 ft line down to 18 ft, enclosing about 141 acres of water. Half of that water lies inside the 15 ft line, and only 20 acres lie inside the deepest one. Every contour is on the interactive map below, free and without an account.

| Depth contour | Water inside it | Share of mapped water |
|---|---|---|
| 0 ft | 141 acres | 100% |
| 3 ft | 130 acres | 93% |
| 6 ft | 119 acres | 85% |
| 9 ft | 103 acres | 73% |
| 12 ft | 85 acres | 61% |
| 15 ft | 43 acres | 31% |
| 18 ft | 20 acres | 14% |
Acreages are computed from the closed CT DEEP Lake Bathymetry contour rings, with islands subtracted. Shares are of the 141 acres inside the outermost charted contour (the 0 ft line), which is the outer edge of the mapped water, several state files carry no 0 ft shoreline line, so this is not the same as a share of the lake's published surface area.
Fishing Batterson Park Pond: steep sides for its size
Inside its outermost 0 ft contour the survey charts about 141 acres of Batterson Park Pond, with the 15 ft line enclosing half of it, so the bottom holds its depth well out from the bank rather than tapering off a long shallow margin. The sharpest change on the chart is between 12 and 15 ft, where the mapped water loses 42 acres in 3 ft of depth, that band is the contour to work first, because it is where the bottom stops being flat. 20 acres, 14% of the mapped water, lie inside the deepest 18 ft contour, toward the northeastern corner of the lake. Topping out at 18 ft, weed growth structures this water more than depth does, but the 20-acre deep spot still concentrates fish in the heat of summer, and the one-contour depressions on the chart are the ones most anglers row straight over.
Ice fishing on Batterson Park Pond
A shallow lake like Batterson Park Pond is usually among the first to make safe ice, and once the weed beds die back the fish have very little deep water to spread into: just 20 acres inside the 18 ft contour. Start there, then hunt the subtle single-contour depressions across the 141-acre basin. Check ice thickness locally before you walk out.
Batterson Park Pond depth map FAQs
- How deep is Batterson Park Pond?
- Batterson Park Pond reaches a maximum depth of 18 feet in the CT DEEP Lake Bathymetry survey. Most of it is far shallower: the survey charts 7 closed depth contours over about 141 acres, and half of that water sits inside the 15 ft line.
- Where is the deepest part of Batterson Park Pond?
- The deepest charted water on Batterson Park Pond lies inside the 18 ft contour, toward the northeastern corner of the lake. That contour encloses 20 acres, 14% of the mapped water, so it is a small target on a small water, the depth chart above gives the contour to line up on.
- How much of Batterson Park Pond is shallower than 15 feet?
- About half. The 15 ft contour encloses 43 acres of the roughly 141 acres inside the outer 0 ft line, so the other half of the water is shallower than 15 feet. The sharpest drop is between 12 and 15 feet, where the mapped water sheds 42 acres.
- How accurate is this Batterson Park Pond depth map?
- The contours come from the CT DEEP Lake Bathymetry survey, retrieved August 2026 and last rebuilt on August 19, 2026. Depths change over time with water levels and sediment, so treat this map as a planning guide for fishing, and never use it for navigation. Acreages are computed from the published contour geometry, not from a separate area survey, so read them as close approximations.
