246-acre lake near ᒪᐢᑫᑯᓵᑲᐦᐃᑲᓂᕽ Muskeg Lake. The lake tops out around 39 ft. What you see is a modeled chart: the shoreline is real, the max depth is published, and the contours between are estimated. Plan with it; don't navigate by it. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Drawn out, this is 245 acres of water rimmed by 3.4 miles of bank. Index 1.6 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 63% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Figure 1.2 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.6 mi at the beam. The water lies in Division No. 16. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Martin's Lake, 4 mi northeast of here.
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 2 to 8 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 20 ft, wintering in 5 to 15 ft. Spring northern pike concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 5 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (5 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

Early season walleye use the shallows, holding in 4 to 15 ft. Summer is a 15 to 35 ft game here, winter a 12 to 39 ft one.

Tie on a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) and you're in the game.
