7-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 23 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The outline encloses 7 acres, worked by 0.5 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 86% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Sudbury District claims this one. Walroth Lake sits 1 mi west — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring brook trout on Barager's Lake hold shallow, usually 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 7 to 23 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 20 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 7 to 23 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (20 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
