17-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.
The drawn water covers 17 acres wrapped in 0.7 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 11% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.3 mi end to end. It sits in Portneuf MRC. Lac Manchot sits 2 mi west — the closest neighbouring chart.

Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 2 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 10 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 3 to 20 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a feeding flat near 11 ft that grades good for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (11 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 |

| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shallow bay flat (11 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
When the water first warms, lake trout slide up into 10 to 40 ft. By summer they slide out to 18 to 60 ft, and by winter most fish are in 15 to 60 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 60 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger rigged through the warm months.

Start shallow in spring: arctic char sit in 4 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 20 to 60 ft, and winter fish settle into 10 to 40 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 60 ft of water that rates prime for arctic char in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) until the fish tell you otherwise.

In spring, walleye run shallow here, mostly 4 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 15 to 35 ft before dropping to 20 to 40 ft for winter. Winter walleye concentrate at Deep basin, a good-rated deep basin around 60 ft. Fish it in the evening and early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) most summer days.
