140-acre lake in Timiskaming District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 72 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
On the chart, Greenwater Lake draws 140 acres inside 2.6 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.6) — enough points and pockets to pattern. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 32% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. The basin spans about 0.8 mi end to end and 0.5 mi across at its widest. The water lies in Timiskaming District. The nearest mapped water is Holden Lake, 1 mi to the south.
In spring, lake trout run shallow here, mostly 10 to 40 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 22 to 72 ft, and winter fish settle into 18 to 72 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 61 ft, rated prime for summer lake trout. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger most summer days.
