326-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 79 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. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Drawn out, this is 326 acres of water rimmed by 3.5 miles of bank. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. 43% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Figure 1.3 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.7 mi at the beam. The water lies in Sept-Rivières--Caniapiscau. For a second option, Lac Quatre Lieues lies 3 mi southwest.

In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 10 to 30 ft before dropping to 3 to 20 ft for winter. Summer brook trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 10 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.

Spring puts lake trout in skinny water — 10 to 40 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 24 to 79 ft, wintering in 20 to 79 ft. Summer lake trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 79 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger covers the summer program.

Spring puts landlocked salmon in skinny water — 1 to 15 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 25 to 60 ft; cold water stacks them in 10 to 40 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 10 ft, rated prime for winter landlocked salmon. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core covers the summer program.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 1 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (5 ft) | Streamer flies (Grey Ghost) off boards, Thin spoon (Mooselook style) |

Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 15 to 45 ft. Expect a summer slide to 24 to 79 ft, then a winter hold in 25 to 70 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 79 ft that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.
