Rating depth structure for striped bass.

10-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 25 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 10 acres, worked by 0.5 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. About 72% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Le Rocher-Percé MRC claims this one. Lac Laroche sits 1 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.

Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 8 to 25 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 25 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.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 8 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (25 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 3 to 25 ft. The depth story barely changes: 8 to 25 ft through summer, 4 to 25 ft in winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 25 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for after dark and early morning. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.

| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Été | 8 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 60 ft | night & dawn | Deep basin (25 ft) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Automne | 4 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 30 ft | dusk & dawn | open water | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Hiver | 4 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 35 ft | dawn | Deep basin (25 ft) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
When the water first warms, landlocked salmon slide up into 1 to 15 ft. Summer is an 8 to 25 ft game here, winter a 6 to 25 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 25 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core rigged through the warm months.

| Automne | 4 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Casting spoon at the mouths, Streamers |
| Hiver | 6 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (25 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Swedish pimple + smelt |
In spring, striped bass run shallow here, mostly 5 to 20 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 8 to 25 ft, and winter fish settle into 8 to 25 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 25 ft, rated prime for summer striped bass. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a topwater walker at low light or a paddletail on a light jig most summer days.

Lac Brûlé is about 25 ft (8 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Lac Brûlé atteint environ 8 m (25 pi) à son point le plus profond. Les profondeurs proviennent de relevés bathymétriques réels.
Anglers target brook trout, brown trout, landlocked salmon, striped bass on Lac Brûlé. This species list is an informed estimate from Québec's provincial fish-range maps (bounded by each lake's depth and habitat), not a per-lake fish survey — Québec doesn't publish per-lake species records.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 25 ft of water that rates prime for landlocked salmon in summer. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For brook trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
