8-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. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Drawn out, this is 8 acres of water rimmed by 0.4 miles of bank. Its 1.1 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. Roughly 61% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. You'll find it in Antoine-Labelle MRC. The nearest mapped water is Lac Écuyer, 1 mi to the east.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 33 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
