39-acre lake in Cochrane District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 70 ft. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 39 acres wrapped in 1.5 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.7) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 46% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Call it 0.5 mi long by 0.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Cochrane District. If the bite dies, Rabbit Lake is 0 mi to the north.
Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 10 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 3 to 20 ft. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 32 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (32 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (18 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shallow bay flat (6 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Structure-wise the chart holds 4 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 60 ft.
