21-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 59 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 21 acres of water rimmed by 0.7 miles of bank. Its 1.2 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. About 26% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 0.3 mi long by 0.2 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Antoine-Labelle MRC. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Lac Linda, 4 mi southwest of here.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Main-lake point, a point in the 14 ft range, prime in spring. 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.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (14 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (14 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | open water | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Start shallow in spring: lake trout sit in 10 to 40 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 18 to 59 ft, and winter fish settle into 15 to 59 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 59 ft of water that rates prime for lake trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger until the fish tell you otherwise.

When the water first warms, lake whitefish slide up into 15 to 45 ft. By summer they slide out to 18 to 59 ft, and by winter most fish are in 18 to 59 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 59 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon rigged through the warm months.
