77-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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The outline encloses 77 acres, worked by 1.9 miles of shoreline. With a 1.6 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. Roughly 56% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. The basin spans about 0.8 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. La Côte-de-Beaupré MRC claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lac Poudrette, is 1 mi to the north.

Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 10 to 30 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 30 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |

The spring pattern is a shallow one: yellow perch in 3 to 12 ft. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 9 to 30 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 6 ft range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm gets it done.
