Southeast Rock.  This is a ledge, nearly uncovered at low tide on its shoalest spot, SSE from Petit Manan and 4 1/2 miles distant, The shoal portions slope toward the NE a distance of 4 miles over an irregular bottom, Depths vary from 17 to 30 fathoms, The shoals are rocky, and the deeps are muddy, Cod and haddock are taken here in May and June, hake from July to September, It is a good lobster ground, also, Fishing here is by handline and trawl operated from vessels and small boats from near-by Maine ports.

Broken Ridges aka Joe Roy Ground.  This lies SSE from Petit Manan 7 miles to the center.  It is 2 miles long NE and SW and one mile wide and from 27 to 33 fathoms, and the bottom of rocks and mud is very uneven, The shoalest portion is near the center.  It is said to be a good cod and haddock ground, and is mainly a small boat ground, although some vessel fishing is carried on here in the spring.

Black Ledges Ground.  This ground lies between Jordan’s Delight and the Halibut Ledges, or Black Ledges.  It is a good haddock ground for a brief season in the spring and early summer when the fish are following the herring schools.  In general it is a small-boat ground on which chiefly hand lines and trawls are operated, A few cod and cusk are taken here in the fall, and it is a good lobster ground.

Bakers Island Ridge.  This is a narrow ledge making out from Bakers Island E, by N. The eastern part bears S. by E. from Schoodic Island 3/4 mile distant The ridge is much broken, its average width being 1/2 mile, and it has depths of from 20 to 25 fathoms over a rocky and gravelly bottom.  It is not much fished on the shoaler spots, but in 30 to 35 fathoms, on a muddy bottom, hake are abundant from July to October, inclusive.  Cod and cusk are found here in the spring and fall; haddock from October to January, inclusive.  Fishing here is done by small boats and small vessels mainly from Bass Harbor and Southwest Harbor by trawl and hand line.  It is a very good lobster ground.

Martins Ground; Hillards Reef.  The center bears WSW. from Schoodic Point, distant 3 miles.  It is a rocky patch of 4 or 5 acres and has depths of from 15 to 25 fathoms.  It is not important except for its hand-lining for cod and haddock in the spring and fall months and for hake in the fall.  It is a good lobster ground.

Egg Rock Broken Ground.  This is a rocky ridge making out S. by W. from Egg Rock Ledges and is about 2 miles long by 14 miles wide.  It has an irregular bottom, with depths from 9 to 15 fathoms.  This ridge, with Martins and Seaveys Grounds, divides the western or Bakers Island mud channel from Schoodic mud channel.  Both these were formerly considered very good hake grounds but, while still good, are not as profitable for hake fishing as in past years.  Haddock are taken on the ridge in the spring and in October, November, and December.  A few cod are taken in the spring and fall.  Fishing is by trawl and hand line.  It is a good lobster ground.
