38-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 50 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 Vézina runs 38 acres with 1.2 miles of edge. Its 1.4 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. About 27% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. The basin spans about 0.5 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. The water lies in Matawinie MRC. For a second option, Lac de la Grosse Truite lies 1 mi northwest.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 10 to 30 ft before dropping to 3 to 20 ft for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 4 ft of water that rates good for brook trout in spring. 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.

Come spring, look for arctic char tight to the bank in 4 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 15 to 50 ft, then a winter hold in 10 to 40 ft. Start at Deep basin.
