325-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 66 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The drawn water covers 325 acres wrapped in 3.1 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.2 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. 30% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. End to end it runs roughly 1.1 mi, about 0.9 mi across. La Rivière-du-Nord MRC claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lac Bleu, is 1 mi to the southwest.

Keep a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger rigged through the warm months.
