15-acre lake in Parry Sound District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 11 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The drawn water covers 16 acres wrapped in 1 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. Figure 0.3 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. Parry Sound District claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, East Ryan Lake, is 1 mi to the south.
Early season brown bullhead use the shallows, holding in 2 to 8 ft. Summer is a 3 to 11 ft game here, winter a 3 to 11 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 9 ft, prime for winter. Best bite is after dark and the evening.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | dusk & night | open water | |
| Summer | 3 to 11 ft | night & dusk | Deep basin (9 ft) | |
| Fall | 3 to 11 ft | dusk | Deep basin (9 ft) | |
| Winter | 3 to 11 ft | midday | Deep basin (9 ft) |
Structure-wise the chart holds 3 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 9 ft.
