881-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 17 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
On the chart, Lac Pelletier draws 881 acres inside 5.4 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 96% of this chart. Call it 2 mi long by 1.1 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Rouyn-Noranda. The nearest mapped water is Lac Noranda, 2 mi to the northeast.

Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 5 to 17 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 17 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 17 ft, rated prime for summer brook trout. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.

In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 4 to 17 ft. Summer keeps them at 5 to 17 ft, and they winter in 3 to 17 ft. Winter rainbow trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 13 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
