1,101-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 131 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 1,101 acres of water rimmed by 9.1 miles of bank. Index 2 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. About 11% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Tip to tip the water measures near 3.5 mi with a 1.2-mi widest point. You'll find it in Antoine-Labelle MRC. For a second option, Lac du Castor Blanc lies 5 mi northwest.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. The spot to know is Main-lake point, a point in about 11 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
