28-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 13 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Drawn out, this is 28 acres of water rimmed by 1 miles of bank. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Figure 0.4 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Les Laurentides MRC. For a second option, Lac Nantel lies 0 mi west.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 13 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 4 to 13 ft covers summer, 2 to 13 ft covers winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 13 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: rainbow trout in 3 to 13 ft. The depth story barely changes: 3 to 13 ft through summer, 3 to 13 ft in winter. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 3 ft range, prime in winter. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon gets it done.
