12-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 66 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 season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Traced from the shoreline, Lac Vert runs 12 acres with 0.6 miles of edge. Nearly circular (index 1.2), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 25% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. You'll find it in Matawinie MRC. For a second option, Lac Fox lies 0 mi east.

In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 7 ft, rated good for spring brook trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.

| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (7 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |

Spring puts lake trout in skinny water — 10 to 40 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 20 to 66 ft; cold water stacks them in 17 to 66 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 63 ft, rated prime for summer lake trout. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger covers the summer program.

Come spring, look for walleye tight to the bank in 4 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 15 to 35 ft, then a winter hold in 20 to 40 ft. Start at Back-bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 18 ft of water and rates good come summer. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning.
