62-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 23 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 62 acres of water rimmed by 1.5 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. Roughly 72% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. The basin spans about 0.7 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. The water lies in Sept-Rivières--Caniapiscau. The nearest mapped water is Lac Alain-Potvin, 1 mi to the southwest.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 7 to 23 ft before dropping to 3 to 20 ft for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 23 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. 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.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 7 to 23 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (23 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |

Start shallow in spring: landlocked salmon sit in 1 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 7 to 23 ft; cold water stacks them in 6 to 23 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 23 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core until the fish tell you otherwise.
