29-acre lake in Haliburton County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 26 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1984 (a transect sounding survey). Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Moore Lake draws 29 acres inside 1.4 miles of shoreline. Index 1.9 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. 55% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. The water lies in Haliburton County. For a second option, Hurst Lake lies 1 mi northeast.
Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 8 to 26 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 26 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
