145-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 30 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.
The outline encloses 145 acres, worked by 2.5 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.5) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 50% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Tip to tip the water measures near 1.2 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. La Côte-de-Beaupré MRC claims this one. If the bite dies, Lac Nouvel is 1 mi to the northwest.

When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 10 to 30 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 30 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.

Spring puts yellow perch in skinny water — 3 to 12 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 9 to 30 ft. Spring yellow perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 3 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm covers the summer program.
