136-acre lake in Timiskaming District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 151 ft. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 137 acres, worked by 2.8 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.7) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. 18% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. Call it 0.8 mi long by 0.5 mi wide at the broadest reach. Timiskaming District claims this one. Fourbass Lake sits 2 mi south — the closest neighbouring chart.
Early season lake trout use the shallows, holding in 10 to 40 ft. Summer is a 50 to 120 ft game here, winter a 20 to 80 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 128 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (38 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 50 to 120 ft | dawn | Deep basin (128 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (38 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 20 to 80 ft | dawn | Break off the point (68 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
