47-acre lake in Haliburton County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 35 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1970, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
The outline encloses 48 acres, worked by 2.5 miles of shoreline. A development index of 2.6 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. 60% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Call it 0.9 mi long by 0.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Haliburton County. If the bite dies, Harburn Lake is 1 mi to the northeast.
When the water first warms, splake slide up into 5 to 25 ft. By summer they slide out to 11 to 35 ft, and by winter most fish are in 8 to 35 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 15 ft that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a trolled spoon at the thermocline or a white tube jig (deep) rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Small casting spoon (gold/orange), Inline spinner |
| Summer | 11 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (15 ft) | Trolled spoon at the thermocline, White tube jig (deep) |
| Fall | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait |
| Winter | 8 to 35 ft | dawn | Break off the point (15 ft) | Jigging spoon tipped with minnow head, Small white tube |
Start shallow in spring: yellow perch sit in 3 to 12 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 15 to 35 ft. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 4 ft range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (4 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Break off the point (15 ft) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small spoon tipped with worm |
| Fall | 12 to 35 ft | midday | Deep basin (35 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Perch rig / spreader |
| Winter | 15 to 35 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (35 ft) | Tungsten jig + spikes, Rattle spoon (small) |
