Fishing Dona Lake: what the data says

605-acre lake in Kenora District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 10 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1983 (a transect sounding survey). The exact depth survey is published on its own because no defensible water-specific species roster was found.

The drawn water covers 608 acres wrapped in 6.4 miles of bank, broken up by 2 islands. With a 1.9 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end. Figure 2 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.9 mi at the beam. It sits in Kenora District. Pickle Lake sits 4 mi northwest — the closest neighbouring chart.
