111-acre lake in Algoma District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 30 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1965, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). The exact depth survey is published on its own because no defensible water-specific species roster was found.
The outline encloses 112 acres, worked by 5.2 miles of shoreline, broken up by an island. An index of 3.5 puts the bank firmly in maze territory: point after pocket after cove, every one a casting target. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 86% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 1.2 mi with a 0.6-mi widest point. Algoma District claims this one. If the bite dies, Wildcat Lake is 2 mi to the southeast.
The chart marks 6 structure features on Hardtime Lake; the deepest is Deep basin at about 29 ft.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Ontario waters are set by the Ontario fishing regulations (FMZ summary) — and special regulations can apply to Hardtime Lake specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.
