94-acre lake in Haliburton County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 50 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.
The chart traces 1.9 miles of shoreline here — one island included. Index 1.9 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. 36% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.7 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. The water lies in Haliburton County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Bear Lake, 1 mi northeast of here.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Main-lake point, a point in the 10 ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. 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 (10 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (39 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |

Early season brown trout use the shallows, holding in 3 to 25 ft. Summer is a 15 to 50 ft game here, winter a 5 to 35 ft one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 39 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is after dark and early morning. Tie on a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) and you're in the game.
