1,211-acre lake near Magog. The lake tops out around 79 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Lac Lovering maps at 1,213 acres behind 10.4 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (2.1) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 21% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Tip to tip the water measures near 3.7 mi with a 1.2-mi widest point. It sits in Memphrémagog MRC. Lake Memphremagog sits 6 mi southwest — the closest neighbouring chart.

Early season lake trout use the shallows, holding in 10 to 40 ft. Expect a summer slide to 24 to 79 ft, then a winter hold in 20 to 79 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 78 ft that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger and you're in the game.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (15 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Été | 24 to 79 ft | dawn | Deep basin (78 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Automne | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Secondary point (15 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Hiver | 20 to 79 ft | dawn | Deep basin (78 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
Come spring, look for rainbow trout tight to the bank in 5 to 20 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 8 to 40 ft. Start at Creek inflow. It's an inflow / creek mouth holding about 15 ft of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Creek inflow (15 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Été | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Creek inflow (15 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Automne | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (15 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Hiver | 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Break off the point (30 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Start shallow in spring: brown trout sit in 3 to 25 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 25 to 60 ft; cold water stacks them in 5 to 35 ft. Top water on the chart: Creek inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 15 ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in after dark and early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Creek inflow (15 ft) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Été | 25 to 60 ft | night & dawn | Break off the point (30 ft) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Automne | 5 to 30 ft | dusk & dawn | Creek inflow (15 ft) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Hiver | 5 to 35 ft | dawn | Creek inflow (15 ft) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 15 to 45 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 24 to 79 ft, wintering in 25 to 70 ft. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 78 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (30 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Été | 24 to 79 ft | dawn | Deep basin (78 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Automne | 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Break off the point (30 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Hiver | 25 to 70 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (78 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring puts cisco (lake herring) in skinny water — 10 to 40 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 24 to 79 ft, wintering in 20 to 60 ft. Summer cisco (lake herring) concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 78 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A vertical flutter spoon (small) or a drop-shot micro plastic covers the summer program.

Start shallow in spring: walleye sit in 4 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 15 to 35 ft; cold water stacks them in 20 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Creek inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 15 ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in the evening and early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 4 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Creek inflow (15 ft) | 1/8 oz jig + minnow, Hair jig |
