170-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 26 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.
Traced from the shoreline, Lac Fradette runs 170 acres with 3.3 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.8) — enough points and pockets to pattern. About 90% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 1.5 mi long by 0.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. You'll find it in La Côte-de-Beaupré MRC. The nearest mapped water is Lac Malbaie, 3 mi to the northeast.

Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 26 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 26 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
