131-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 56 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 Suzor-Coté draws 131 acres inside 2.3 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.5) — enough points and pockets to pattern. About 41% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 0.9 mi long by 0.4 mi wide at the broadest reach. You'll find it in Le Saguenay-et-son-Fjord. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Lac Bousquet, 1 mi west of here.

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 12 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.
