69-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 26 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 drawn water covers 69 acres wrapped in 1.5 miles of bank. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 76% of this chart. The basin spans about 0.7 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. Les Laurentides MRC claims this one. If the bite dies, Lac Winnetou is 3 mi to the south.

Spring brook trout on Lac du Brochet hold shallow, usually 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 8 to 26 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 24 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.

Tie on a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon and you're in the game.

Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 3 to 25 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 26 ft, wintering in 4 to 26 ft. Summer brown trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 18 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around after dark and early morning. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.

Start shallow in spring: yellow perch sit in 3 to 12 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 8 to 26 ft, and winter fish settle into 8 to 26 ft. The spot to know is Back-bay flat, a weed flat in about 5 ft of water that rates prime for yellow perch in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm until the fish tell you otherwise.

Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 2 to 8 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 20 ft, then a winter hold in 5 to 15 ft. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 ft of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
