188-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 60 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.
Traced from the shoreline, Lac Bellevue runs 188 acres with 2 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Roughly 8% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. Call it 0.8 mi long by 0.5 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Portneuf MRC. For a second option, Lac des Narcisses lies 2 mi west.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 10 to 30 ft before dropping to 3 to 20 ft for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a feeding flat in about 7 ft of water that rates good for brook trout in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake trout in 10 to 40 ft. As the season builds they drop to 18 to 60 ft, wintering in 15 to 60 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 60 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger gets it done.

Come spring, look for arctic char tight to the bank in 4 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 20 to 60 ft, then a winter hold in 10 to 40 ft. Start at Deep basin.
