547-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 120 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. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 547 acres, worked by 10.3 miles of shoreline. The 3.1 development index tells the story — a convoluted bank whose fishable edge far outruns the acreage. Roughly 19% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. Call it 4.7 mi long by 0.8 mi wide at the broadest reach. Mékinac MRC claims this one. Lac Thérèse sits 2 mi west — the closest neighbouring chart.

Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 10 to 30 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — feeding flat, 8 ft, good for spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.

When the water first warms, lake trout slide up into 10 to 40 ft. Summer is a 50 to 120 ft game here, winter a 20 to 80 ft one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 116 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger rigged through the warm months.
