15-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 9 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. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
On the chart, Lac Manet draws 15 acres inside 0.7 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. The whole water is littoral — nothing here runs deeper than ~15 ft, so it's all weed-and-bait territory. End to end it runs roughly 0.3 mi. You'll find it in La Matanie MRC. The nearest mapped water is Lac Duvivier, 4 mi to the south.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 1 to 9 ft. The depth story barely changes: 3 to 9 ft through summer, 1 to 9 ft in winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 9 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 1 to 9 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (4 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |

Start shallow in spring: landlocked salmon sit in 1 to 9 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 3 to 9 ft covers summer, 2 to 9 ft covers winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 9 ft of water that rates prime for landlocked salmon in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core until the fish tell you otherwise.
