14-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 40 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 outline encloses 14 acres, worked by 0.6 miles of shoreline. At index 1.2 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline.
