39-acre lake near Cook County. The lake tops out around 22 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Dislocation draws 39 acres inside 1.5 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.7) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 73% of this chart, as modeled. End to end it runs roughly 0.6 mi, about 0.3 mi across. The water lies in Cook County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Weasel, 0 mi north of here.
In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 7 to 22 ft before dropping to 3 to 20 ft for winter. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 19 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (19 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
In spring, splake run shallow here, mostly 4 to 22 ft. Summer keeps them at 7 to 22 ft, and they winter in 5 to 22 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 10 ft, rated prime for summer splake. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a trolled spoon at the thermocline or a white tube jig (deep) most summer days.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 4 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small casting spoon (gold/orange), Inline spinner |
| Summer | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 60 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 ft) | Trolled spoon at the thermocline, White tube jig (deep) |
| Fall | 6 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait |
| Winter | 5 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 45 ft | dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Jigging spoon tipped with minnow head, Small white tube |
Come spring, look for brown trout tight to the bank in 3 to 22 ft. Through summer count on 7 to 22 ft; the winter hold is 3 to 22 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 10 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) is the honest summer answer here.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Summer | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 60 ft | night & dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Fall | 4 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 30 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 35 ft | dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Come spring, look for yellow perch tight to the bank in 3 to 12 ft. Expect a summer slide to 7 to 22 ft, then a winter hold in 7 to 22 ft. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 3 ft of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm is the honest summer answer here.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |

| Spring | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |

| Fall | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 12 to 35 ft | midday | Deep basin (19 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Perch rig / spreader |
| Winter | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 15 to 35 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Tungsten jig + spikes, Rattle spoon (small) |
Structure-wise the chart holds 5 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 19 ft.

Dislocation is about 22 ft (7 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.
Anglers target brook trout, splake, brown trout, yellow perch on Dislocation.
Break off the point is the top-rated area: a drop-off in about 10 ft of water that rates prime for splake in summer. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For brook trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
