821-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 95 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.
The drawn water covers 821 acres wrapped in 5.4 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.4), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. About 22% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. The basin spans about 2.2 mi end to end and 0.9 mi across at its widest. Lac-Saint-Jean-Est MRC claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lac Sébastien, is 15 mi to the east.

Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 10 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 18 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.

When the water first warms, landlocked salmon slide up into 1 to 15 ft. Summer is a 25 to 60 ft game here, winter a 10 to 40 ft one. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 18 ft of water and rates prime come winter. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core rigged through the warm months.

You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.
