31-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 23 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Drawn out, this is 31 acres of water rimmed by 1 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.2 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 80% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 0.4 mi long. The water lies in Charlevoix MRC. For a second option, Lac des Îles lies 1 mi northeast.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 7 to 23 ft before dropping to 3 to 20 ft for winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 23 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Profondeur | Meilleure fenêtre | Commencer à | Leurres |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 7 to 23 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (23 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Automne | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Hiver | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Break off the point (15 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Early season yellow perch use the shallows, holding in 3 to 12 ft. Expect a summer slide to 7 to 23 ft, then a winter hold in 7 to 23 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 23 ft that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm and you're in the game.

Anglers target brook trout, yellow perch on Lac Taschereau. This species list is an informed estimate from Québec's provincial fish-range maps (bounded by each lake's depth and habitat), not a per-lake fish survey — Québec doesn't publish per-lake species records.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 23 ft of water that rates prime for yellow perch in fall. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For brook trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
