85-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 108 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 outline encloses 85 acres, worked by 2 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.5) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Roughly 33% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. End to end it runs roughly 0.9 mi, about 0.3 mi across. It sits in Charlevoix MRC. Grand lac des Enfers sits 2 mi north — the closest neighbouring chart.

When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. By summer they slide out to 10 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 22 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.

Early season lake trout use the shallows, holding in 10 to 40 ft. Expect a summer slide to 32 to 108 ft, then a winter hold in 20 to 80 ft.
