5-acre lake in Renfrew County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 39 ft. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 5 acres wrapped in 0.4 miles of bank. Its 1.3 shoreline index means few bank features; the contours below do the pattern work. Roughly 36% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. It sits in Renfrew County. If the bite dies, Limestone Lake is 1 mi to the southwest.
Spring brook trout on Little Black Lake hold shallow, usually 2 to 15 ft. By summer they slide out to 10 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 20 ft. The chart's best answer is Shoreline break — drop-off, 18 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (5 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (18 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shoreline break (18 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
