86-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 46 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. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Traced from the shoreline, Lac La Salle runs 86 acres with 1.8 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. 42% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. End to end it runs roughly 0.8 mi, about 0.3 mi across. You'll find it in Les Laurentides MRC. For a second option, Lac Lavallée lies 1 mi southwest.
