376-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 30 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 drawn water covers 376 acres wrapped in 3.5 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 68% of this chart. Call it 1.5 mi long by 0.7 mi wide at the broadest reach. Le Saguenay-et-son-Fjord claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lac Ayette, is 3 mi to the southwest.

Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 10 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 30 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is 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 | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (30 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shallow bay flat (4 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
When the water first warms, landlocked salmon slide up into 1 to 15 ft. Summer is a 9 to 30 ft game here, winter an 8 to 30 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 30 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 1 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Streamer flies (Grey Ghost) off boards, Thin spoon (Mooselook style) |
| Été | 9 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (30 ft) | Dodger + streamer down deep, Thin spoon on lead core |
| Automne | 5 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Casting spoon at the mouths, Streamers |
| Hiver | 8 to 30 ft | dawn | Deep basin (30 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Swedish pimple + smelt |
In spring, yellow perch run shallow here, mostly 3 to 12 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 9 to 30 ft. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 4 ft, rated prime for spring yellow perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (4 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |
