Please, whatever you do, DO NOT BE AFRAID of Squam Lake, it is a Beautiful lake. Great Fishing ( Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Salmon, Rainbow Trout, Lake Trout, White/Yellow Perch. Water is extremely clean and clear, just to many wonderful things to say about it.
Only down side I know of is there is only 24-26 parking spots that are free.
Top Water is correct in everything he says. I only have one suggestion (and I am not picking on him): can everyone PLEASE refer to the paper reference guides for bodies of water as "charts", not "maps". I hate to split hairs, but they are charts:
