40-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 40 acres of water rimmed by 1 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 18% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 0.4 mi long by 0.2 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Les Pays-d'en-Haut MRC. For a second option, Lac Boucané lies 1 mi southeast.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake trout in 10 to 40 ft. As the season builds they drop to 18 to 59 ft, wintering in 15 to 59 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 58 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger gets it done.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Été | 18 to 59 ft | dawn | Deep basin (58 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Automne | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Hiver | 15 to 59 ft | dawn | Deep basin (58 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
Start shallow in spring: rainbow trout sit in 5 to 20 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 8 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 8 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Main-lake point, a point in the 9 ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |

| Automne | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Hiver | 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Break off the point (54 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Spring brown trout on Lac Millette hold shallow, usually 3 to 25 ft. They move out to 18 to 59 ft in summer and finish the year down in 5 to 35 ft. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 54 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run after dark and early morning. The summer box starts with a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night).

Come spring, look for lake whitefish tight to the bank in 15 to 45 ft. Expect a summer slide to 18 to 59 ft, then a winter hold in 18 to 59 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 58 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (54 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |

Spring walleye on Lac Millette hold shallow, usually 4 to 15 ft. They move out to 15 to 35 ft in summer and finish the year down in 20 to 40 ft. Put Main-lake point first on the milk run — a point near 9 ft that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. The summer box starts with a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled).
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 4 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (9 ft) | 1/8 oz jig + minnow, Hair jig |

Early season yellow perch use the shallows, holding in 3 to 12 ft. Expect a summer slide to 10 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 15 to 35 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a feeding flat near 6 ft that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm and you're in the game.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |
