Shared by DepthScout anglers. Exact spots stay private, always.
24-acre lake in Muskoka District Municipality, Ontario. The lake tops out around 15 ft. The depth picture is modeled, anchored to the true shoreline and the water's published max depth — a scouting aid, never a chart to run a boat by. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
On the chart, Blackmoore Lake draws 24 acres inside 1.4 miles of shoreline. Index 2 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. End to end it runs roughly 0.6 mi. You'll find it in Muskoka District Municipality. The nearest mapped water is Weismuller Lake, 3 mi to the southwest.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown bullhead in 2 to 8 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 3 to 12 ft before dropping to 5 to 15 ft for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 13 ft of water that rates prime for brown bullhead in winter. Plan around after dark and the evening in the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | dusk & night | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | |
| Summer | 3 to 12 ft | night & dusk | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | |
