238-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 26 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Drawn out, this is 238 acres of water rimmed by 3.6 miles of bank — one island included. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.7) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Roughly 71% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. The basin spans about 1.2 mi end to end and 0.9 mi across at its widest. You'll find it in Lac-Saint-Jean-Est MRC. For a second option, Lac Morin lies 3 mi north.

Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 26 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 26 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
