88-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. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 88 acres, worked by 1.5 miles of shoreline. 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 31% of this chart. Figure 0.6 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.4 mi at the beam. Memphrémagog MRC claims this one. If the bite dies, Lac Peasley is 1 mi to the south.

Early season lake trout use the shallows, holding in 10 to 40 ft. Summer is an 18 to 59 ft game here, winter a 15 to 59 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 59 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger and you're in the game.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (32 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |

Come spring, look for rainbow trout tight to the bank in 5 to 20 ft. They move out to 8 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 8 to 40 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 32 ft that scores prime in winter. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon is the honest summer answer here.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (6 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |

Start shallow in spring: brown trout sit in 3 to 25 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 18 to 59 ft, and winter fish settle into 5 to 35 ft. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 32 ft of water that rates prime for brown trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and early morning. Throw a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) until the fish tell you otherwise.

Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 15 to 45 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 18 to 59 ft; cold water stacks them in 18 to 59 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 59 ft, rated prime for summer lake whitefish. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.
