7-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 6 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The outline encloses 7 acres, worked by 0.5 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.2), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end. Nipissing District claims this one. If the bite dies, Pothole 2 L. is 1 mi to the north.
Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 6 ft. Even in summer they hold at 2 to 6 ft; winter keeps them in 1 to 6 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 5 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 6 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 6 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (5 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 6 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 6 ft | dawn | Deep basin (5 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
3 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 5 ft, is the deepest of them.
