21-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Traced from the shoreline, Little Mykiss Lake runs 23 acres with 1.2 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.7) — enough points and pockets to pattern. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 58% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Figure 0.4 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Nipissing District. The nearest mapped water is Chipmunk Lake, 2 mi to the east.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 20 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 17 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 6 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (17 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
