46-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 16 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.
The drawn water covers 46 acres wrapped in 1.2 miles of bank. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 86% of this chart. The basin spans about 0.6 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. It sits in Argenteuil MRC. Petit lac Rainbow sits 1 mi south — the closest neighbouring chart.

When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 4 to 16 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 4 to 16 ft, winter 3 to 16 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 15 ft that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 4 to 16 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 2 to 16 ft. The depth story barely changes: 5 to 16 ft through summer, 2 to 16 ft in winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 15 ft of water that rates prime for brown trout in summer. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: walleye in 4 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 5 to 16 ft before dropping to 5 to 16 ft for winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 15 ft of water that rates prime for walleye in fall. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) gets it done.

| Printemps | 4 to 15 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | 1/8 oz jig + minnow, Hair jig |

In spring, yellow perch run shallow here, mostly 3 to 12 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 5 to 16 ft before dropping to 5 to 16 ft for winter. Fall yellow perch concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 16 ft. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.

| Printemps | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |

Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 2 to 8 ft. Summer is a 5 to 16 ft game here, winter a 5 to 15 ft one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 15 ft, prime for fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.

Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 15 ft that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in the evening and early morning.
