610-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 59 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.
On the chart, Lac Quenouille draws 610 acres inside 6.9 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 2) — enough points and pockets to pattern. 79% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 2.7 mi end to end and 0.9 mi across at its widest. You'll find it in Les Laurentides MRC. The nearest mapped water is Lac Godon, 2 mi to the south.

Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 11 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.
