103-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 60 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Lac de la Ferme maps at 103 acres behind 1.5 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 11% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. End to end it runs roughly 0.5 mi, about 0.4 mi across. It sits in Papineau MRC. Lac Iroquois sits 4 mi northwest — the closest neighbouring chart.

Spring brook trout on Lac de la Ferme hold shallow, usually 2 to 15 ft. By summer they slide out to 10 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 20 ft. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — feeding flat, 6 ft, good for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | 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 (6 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Come spring, look for lake trout tight to the bank in 10 to 40 ft. Expect a summer slide to 18 to 60 ft, then a winter hold in 15 to 60 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 60 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning. A white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Été | 18 to 60 ft | dawn | Deep basin (60 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Automne | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | open water | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Hiver | 15 to 60 ft | dawn | Deep basin (60 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
Early season rainbow trout use the shallows, holding in 5 to 20 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 8 to 40 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a feeding flat near 6 ft that grades good for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon and you're in the game.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Été | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (12 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Automne | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Hiver | 8 to 40 ft | dawn | open water | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 3 to 25 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 25 to 60 ft; cold water stacks them in 5 to 35 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 60 ft, rated prime for summer brown trout. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.
| 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 | 25 to 60 ft | night & dawn | Deep basin (60 ft) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Automne | 5 to 30 ft | dusk & dawn | open water | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Hiver | 5 to 35 ft | dawn | open water | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: arctic char in 4 to 15 ft. As the season builds they drop to 20 to 60 ft, wintering in 10 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 60 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) gets it done.
