Cobbosseecontee Lake

Lake Cobbosseecontee also referred to as Cobbossee Lake, is a body of water that can be found in the Maine communities of Litchfield, Manchester, Monmouth, West Gardiner, and Winthrop. With a depth of 30 m, a length of 14 km, and a shoreline of 100 km, it is the largest lake in the Winthrop Lakes Region. Its surface area is roughly 23 km2, and its length is 14 km. Cobbosseecontee is a Wabanaki term that means "lots of sturgeon".

The gorgeously uneven shape of Lake Cobbosseecontee, which is made up of various glacial coves, jetties, and islands, is well known. Additionally, it is home to Maine's sole operational inland waters lighthouse, Ladies' Delight Light. The Cobbosseecontee Yacht Club owns and maintains the 1908-built, 25-foot (7.6 m) high lighthouse.

Due largely to its tremendous largemouth population, the lake is widely regarded as one of the best bass fishing lakes in America. Cobbosseecontee is home to many of Maine's largest and most aggressive bass. Cobbosseecontee is home to numerous other popular fish species, such as bullheads, sunfish, crappie, rainbow smelt, white perch, yellow perch, brook trout, brown trout, and white perch. Cobbosseecontee's numerous islands, coves, and ledges are prime locations for casting or slowly trolling for bass.
