43-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 43 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 rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
On the chart, Lac Fournet draws 43 acres inside 1.3 miles of shoreline. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. About 56% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Figure 0.6 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. The water lies in Antoine-Labelle MRC.

Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Secondary point is the standout, a point at roughly 9 ft, rated prime for spring brook trout. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
