177-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 90 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 177 acres of water rimmed by 2.2 miles of bank. At index 1.2 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 26% of this chart. Figure 0.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.6 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Maskinongé MRC.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. The spot to know is Shoreline break, a drop-off in about 7 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in winter. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
