236-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 53 ft. The depth chart comes from Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 236 acres, worked by 4 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 73% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. End to end it runs roughly 1.6 mi, about 0.4 mi across. It sits in Nipissing District. Notman Lake sits 2 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring lake trout on Noble Lake hold shallow, usually 10 to 40 ft. By summer they slide out to 16 to 53 ft, and by winter most fish are in 13 to 53 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 44 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 16 to 53 ft | dawn | Deep basin (44 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 10 to 50 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 13 to 53 ft | dawn | Deep basin (44 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 15 to 45 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 16 to 53 ft, and winter fish settle into 16 to 53 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 44 ft, rated prime for summer lake whitefish. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 16 to 53 ft | dawn | Deep basin (44 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Break off the point (1 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 16 to 53 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (44 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, yellow perch run shallow here, mostly 3 to 12 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 10 to 30 ft before dropping to 15 to 35 ft for winter. Spring yellow perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 10 ft. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (10 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Perch-pattern micro crank |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Shallow bay flat (10 ft) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small spoon tipped with worm |
| Fall | 12 to 35 ft | midday | Deep basin (44 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Perch rig / spreader |
| Winter | 15 to 35 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (44 ft) | Tungsten jig + spikes, Rattle spoon (small) |
