54-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 53 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. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Drawn out, this is 54 acres of water rimmed by 1.3 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 32% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.5 mi with a 0.2-mi widest point. The water lies in Matawinie MRC. The nearest mapped water is Lac de l'Épinette, 1 mi to the north.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 4 ft range, good in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
