756-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 26 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 the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Drawn out, this is 756 acres of water rimmed by 6.3 miles of bank — one island included. Index 1.6 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 49% of this chart. Figure 2.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.7 mi at the beam. The water lies in Matawinie MRC.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 8 to 26 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 26 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
