56-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 105 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. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
The drawn water covers 56 acres wrapped in 1.3 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Roughly 5% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. Call it 0.6 mi long by 0.2 mi wide at the broadest reach. Antoine-Labelle MRC claims this one. If the bite dies, Lac des Îles is 2 mi to the southeast.

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 Main-lake point — point, 9 ft, prime for spring. 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.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 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 |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shallow bay flat (16 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
When the water first warms, lake trout slide up into 10 to 40 ft. Summer is a 32 to 105 ft game here, winter a 20 to 80 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 105 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger rigged through the warm months.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (26 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |

Start shallow in spring: arctic char sit in 4 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 20 to 60 ft; cold water stacks them in 10 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a feeding flat in the 16 ft range, good in spring. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Printemps | 4 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (16 ft) | Small casting spoon (silver/orange), Jerkbait (small) |

Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 15 to 45 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 40 to 90 ft; cold water stacks them in 25 to 70 ft. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 93 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.

Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 105 ft range, good in spring. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a vertical flutter spoon (small) or a drop-shot micro plastic until the fish tell you otherwise.

In spring, walleye run shallow here, mostly 4 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 15 to 35 ft, and winter fish settle into 20 to 40 ft. Secondary point is the standout, a point at roughly 26 ft, rated prime for fall walleye. Time it for the evening and early morning. You won't need more than a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) most summer days.
