144-acre lake in Algoma District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 13 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1981 (a transect sounding survey). Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Callahan Lake maps at 144 acres behind 4.2 miles of shoreline — 2 islands included. A development index of 2.5 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. Nothing on this chart breaks 15 ft, which makes the whole surface littoral: weeds, bait and ambush cover everywhere. End to end it runs roughly 1.4 mi, about 0.4 mi across. It sits in Algoma District. Kwagama Lake sits 6 mi southwest — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring brook trout on Callahan Lake hold shallow, usually 2 to 13 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 4 to 13 ft in summer, 2 to 13 ft once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 13 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
