2,448-acre lake in Peterborough County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 80 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1960, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
On the chart, Kasshabog Lake draws 2,459 acres inside 78.6 miles of shoreline — 142 islands included. An index of 11.3 puts the bank firmly in maze territory: point after pocket after cove, every one a casting target. About 70% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Tip to tip the water measures near 6.1 mi with a 3.4-mi widest point. The water lies in Peterborough County. The nearest mapped water is Oak Lake, 3 mi to the southeast.
Early season walleye use the shallows, holding in 4 to 15 ft. Summer is a 15 to 35 ft game here, winter a 20 to 40 ft one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 24 ft, prime for fall. Best bite is the evening and early morning. Tie on a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) and you're in the game.
