16-acre lake in Haliburton County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 57 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1973, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Drawn out, this is 16 acres of water rimmed by 1.2 miles of bank. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 2.1) — enough points and pockets to pattern. 44% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Figure 0.5 mi of water from one end to the other. The water lies in Haliburton County. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Avery Lake, 1 mi southwest of here.
Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Secondary point is the standout, a point at roughly 2 ft, rated prime for spring brook trout. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. 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 | Secondary point (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Secondary point (2 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | open water | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
