70-acre lake in Timiskaming District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 55 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
On the chart, Eagle L. draws 70 acres inside 2 miles of shoreline. Index 1.7 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 54% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Figure 0.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Timiskaming District. The nearest mapped water is Mooseheart Lake, 1 mi to the southeast.
When the water first warms, lake whitefish slide up into 15 to 45 ft. Summer is a 17 to 55 ft game here, winter a 17 to 55 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 47 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon rigged through the warm months.
