15-acre lake in Cochrane District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 25 ft. The depth chart comes from Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1964, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The outline encloses 15 acres, worked by 0.9 miles of shoreline. With a 1.7 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. 84% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. End to end it runs roughly 0.4 mi. Cochrane District claims this one. If the bite dies, Kluck Lake is 0 mi to the northeast.
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 2 to 8 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 20 ft, then a winter hold in 5 to 15 ft. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 5 ft of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (5 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Summer | 8 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 ft) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Fall | 6 to 18 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 5 to 15 ft | midday | Shallow bay flat (5 ft) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Structure-wise the chart holds 4 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 20 ft.
