81-acre lake in Algoma District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 66 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1978, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
On the chart, Bevans Lake draws 81 acres inside 2 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.6) — enough points and pockets to pattern. 21% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Call it 0.7 mi long by 0.4 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Algoma District. For a second option, Vasseau Lake lies 1 mi west.
Spring puts lake trout in skinny water — 10 to 40 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 20 to 66 ft, wintering in 17 to 66 ft. Summer lake trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 66 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
