87-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 49 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. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 87 acres, worked by 1.4 miles of shoreline. Its 1.1 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. 59% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.5 mi with a 0.4-mi widest point. It sits in Matawinie MRC. Lac Long sits 1 mi northwest — the closest neighbouring chart.

Spring rainbow trout on Lac Stevens hold shallow, usually 5 to 20 ft. By summer they slide out to 8 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 8 to 40 ft. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 8 ft, prime for winter. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon.

In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 3 to 25 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 15 to 49 ft before dropping to 5 to 35 ft for winter.

You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.
