13-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 8 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 is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
The outline encloses 13 acres, worked by 0.8 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.5) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Call it 0.4 mi long. Antoine-Labelle MRC claims this one. If the bite dies, Lac Charbonneau is 1 mi to the southeast.

When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 1 to 8 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2 to 8 ft, winter 1 to 8 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 8 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 1 to 8 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 2 to 8 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (8 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 1 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 1 to 8 ft | dawn | Deep basin (8 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Come spring, look for landlocked salmon tight to the bank in 1 to 8 ft. Through summer count on 2 to 8 ft; the winter hold is 2 to 8 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 8 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core is the honest summer answer here.

Start shallow in spring: walleye sit in 2 to 8 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2 to 8 ft covers summer, 2 to 8 ft covers winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 8 ft of water that rates prime for walleye in winter. Warm-month bites cluster around the evening and early morning. Throw a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) until the fish tell you otherwise.

Spring yellow perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm covers the summer program.
