54-acre lake in Renfrew County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 60 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1976, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Traced from the shoreline, Godin Lake runs 54 acres with 2 miles of edge, broken up by 2 islands. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 2) — enough points and pockets to pattern. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 63% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Call it 0.7 mi long by 0.2 mi wide at the broadest reach. You'll find it in Renfrew County. For a second option, Haley Lake lies 1 mi east.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Spring brook trout concentrate at Main-lake point, a prime-rated point around 6 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
