24-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 39 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Drawn out, this is 24 acres of water rimmed by 0.9 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.3 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 64% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. You'll find it in Sept-Rivières--Caniapiscau. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Lac Kiri, 1 mi north of here.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 5 ft range, good in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.

Start shallow in spring: landlocked salmon sit in 1 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 12 to 39 ft, and winter fish settle into 10 to 39 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 37 ft of water that rates prime for landlocked salmon in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a dodger + streamer down deep or a thin spoon on lead core until the fish tell you otherwise.
