[2] Lake Cobbosseecontee is known for its beautifully irregular shape, which consists of numerous glacial coves, jetties, and islands.

However, several cleanup efforts began to surface in the 1970s, likely inspired in part by the EPA's Clean Water Act.

A few decades later, the actions had proven successful, and Cobbosseecontee's water quality rapidly improved throughout the 90's and 2000's as phosphorus runoff decreased and the natural springs that feed the lake began to "flush out" many of the remaining pollutants.

[4] Despite both species being considered invasive in Maine, many anglers flock to Cobbosseecontee each season to hunt down these aggressive predators.

A popular bass fishing technique on Cobbosseecontee involves casting or slowly trolling around the lake's numerous islands, coves, and ledges during the summer months, while the pike are subsequently most active in these same areas during winter.
