Rating depth structure for brook trout.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
50-acre lake in Thunder Bay District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 45 ft. The contours come from a model of the real basin shape and its known max depth. Read them as probabilities, not soundings, and keep them out of navigation decisions. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Traced from the shoreline, Clegge Lake runs 49 acres with 1.7 miles of edge. Index 1.7 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. About 49% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Figure 0.5 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.4 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Thunder Bay District. For a second option, Long Lake lies 1 mi southeast.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 20 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (11 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (11 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Break off the point (20 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
