23-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 26 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
The outline encloses 23 acres, worked by 0.7 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. Roughly 78% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. End to end it runs roughly 0.3 mi, about 0.2 mi across. Les Laurentides MRC claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lac de la Ripousse, is 1 mi to the west.

Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 8 to 26 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 26 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |

When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 5 to 20 ft. Summer is a 7 to 26 ft game here, winter a 5 to 26 ft one. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 22 ft of water and rates prime come winter. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.

Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 26 ft, rated prime for fall yellow perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.

Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
