42-acre lake in Timiskaming District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 43 ft. The contours come from a model of the real basin shape and its known max depth. Read them as probabilities, not soundings, and keep them out of navigation decisions. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
On the chart, Leroy Lake draws 42 acres inside 1.9 miles of shoreline. Index 2.1 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. Roughly 57% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. End to end it runs roughly 0.6 mi, about 0.3 mi across. The water lies in Timiskaming District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Miller Lake, 1 mi west of here.
Early season walleye use the shallows, holding in 4 to 15 ft. Summer is a 15 to 35 ft game here, winter a 20 to 40 ft one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 19 ft, prime for fall. Best bite is the evening and early morning. Tie on a crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) and you're in the game.
