150-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 46 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:
On the chart, Lac Noir draws 150 acres inside 2.8 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.6) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 37% of this chart. Call it 1.2 mi long by 0.4 mi wide at the broadest reach. You'll find it in Charlevoix-Est MRC. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Lac Malfait, 6 mi west of here.

In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. Main-lake point is the standout, a point at roughly 4 ft, rated prime for spring brook trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (4 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (4 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Break off the point (3 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Spring puts landlocked salmon in skinny water — 1 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 14 to 46 ft, wintering in 10 to 40 ft. Summer landlocked salmon concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 46 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core covers the summer program.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 1 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (4 ft) | Streamer flies (Grey Ghost) off boards, Thin spoon (Mooselook style) |
| Été | 14 to 46 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (46 ft) | Dodger + streamer down deep, Thin spoon on lead core |
| Automne | 5 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (5 ft) | Casting spoon at the mouths, Streamers |
| Hiver | 10 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (46 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Swedish pimple + smelt |
Come spring, look for yellow perch tight to the bank in 3 to 12 ft. They move out to 10 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 15 to 35 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 6 ft that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm is the honest summer answer here.
| 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 |
| Été | 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Shallow feeding flat (18 ft) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small spoon tipped with worm |
| Automne | 12 to 35 ft | midday | Deep basin (46 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Perch rig / spreader |
| Hiver | 15 to 35 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow feeding flat (18 ft) | Tungsten jig + spikes, Rattle spoon (small) |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 2 to 8 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 8 to 20 ft; cold water stacks them in 5 to 15 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 6 ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Été | 8 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow feeding flat (18 ft) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Automne | 6 to 18 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Hiver | 5 to 15 ft | midday | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
