22-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 52 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Traced from the shoreline, Bobwhite L. runs 22 acres with 0.8 miles of edge. Nearly circular (index 1.2), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 18% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.3 mi with a 0.2-mi widest point. You'll find it in Sudbury District. For a second option, Pogamasing Lake lies 2 mi north.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Shoreline break, a prime-rated drop-off around 23 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (23 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
