74-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 18 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. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The outline encloses 74 acres, worked by 1.3 miles of shoreline. Its 1.1 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 93% of this chart. Figure 0.5 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. It sits in La Matanie MRC.

Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 5 to 18 ft, then a winter hold in 3 to 18 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 18 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 5 to 18 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (18 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |

When the water first warms, landlocked salmon slide up into 1 to 15 ft. By summer they slide out to 5 to 18 ft, and by winter most fish are in 5 to 18 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 18 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core rigged through the warm months.
