261-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth data here comes from a transect sounding survey by the Ontario MNRF. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Club Lake draws 262 acres inside 6.9 miles of shoreline, with a single island in the mix. The 3 development index tells the story — a convoluted bank whose fishable edge far outruns the acreage. About 88% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Figure 1.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.7 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Nipissing District. For a second option, Mouse 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, 6 to 20 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin 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.

It's a deep basin holding about 20 ft of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a vertical flutter spoon (small) or a drop-shot micro plastic rigged through the warm months.

It's a weed flat holding about 2 ft of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. Keep a micro tube or a sponge spider (fly) rigged through the warm months.
