62-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 68 ft. What you see is a modeled chart: the shoreline is real, the max depth is published, and the contours between are estimated. Plan with it; don't navigate by it. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
On the chart, Becor Lake draws 62 acres inside 1.9 miles of shoreline. Index 1.7 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. 34% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.7 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. The water lies in Sudbury District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Gord Lake, 1 mi north of here.
Start shallow in spring: lake trout sit in 10 to 40 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 20 to 68 ft, and winter fish settle into 17 to 68 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 58 ft of water that rates prime for lake trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (17 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 20 to 68 ft | dawn | Deep basin (58 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (17 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 17 to 68 ft | dawn | Deep basin (58 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
When the water first warms, lake whitefish slide up into 15 to 45 ft. By summer they slide out to 20 to 68 ft, and by winter most fish are in 20 to 68 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 58 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (31 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 20 to 68 ft | dawn | Deep basin (58 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Break off the point (31 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 20 to 68 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (58 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
