73-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 29 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Traced from the shoreline, Lincoln L. 642448 runs 73 acres with 1.9 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.6) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Roughly 70% 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 0.4 mi across. You'll find it in Sudbury District. For a second option, Lincoln Lake lies 5 mi north.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 2 to 8 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 8 to 20 ft before dropping to 5 to 15 ft for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.
