26-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 7 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Lac Yvette draws 26 acres inside 0.9 miles of shoreline. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end. The water lies in Le Saguenay-et-son-Fjord. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Lac Demaux, 0 mi south of here.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 1 to 7 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2 to 7 ft covers summer, 1 to 7 ft covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 7 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
