70-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 59 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.
Drawn out, this is 70 acres of water rimmed by 1.3 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 21% of this chart. Figure 0.6 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Charlevoix MRC.

A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
