90-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 33 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 rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 90 acres wrapped in 1.5 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. About 75% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. The basin spans about 0.6 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. It sits in Matawinie MRC. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lac Archambault, is 2 mi to the west.

Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 2 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 10 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 3 to 20 ft. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 13 ft that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.

In spring, walleye run shallow here, mostly 4 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 10 to 33 ft before dropping to 10 to 33 ft for winter. Fall walleye concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 13 ft. Fish it in the evening and early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) most summer days.

The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 7 ft of water that rates prime for yellow perch in spring. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm gets it done.
