108-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 57 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 109 acres, worked by 3.4 miles of shoreline. The 2.3 development index tells the story — a convoluted bank whose fishable edge far outruns the acreage. Roughly 59% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. Call it 1.2 mi long by 0.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Nipissing District. Head Lake sits 1 mi north — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring lake trout on Kenneth Lake hold shallow, usually 10 to 40 ft. By summer they slide out to 17 to 57 ft, and by winter most fish are in 14 to 57 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 48 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (14 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 17 to 57 ft | dawn | Deep basin (48 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (14 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 14 to 57 ft | dawn | Deep basin (48 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
