264-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 52 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
The drawn water covers 264 acres wrapped in 2.6 miles of bank. Its 1.1 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. About 12% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 1 mi long by 0.5 mi wide at the broadest reach. Rimouski-Neigette MRC claims this one. Lac Prime sits 9 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.

Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 10 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Main-lake point: a point around 14 ft that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
