41-acre lake in Algoma District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 98 ft. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
The drawn water covers 41 acres wrapped in 1.3 miles of bank. With a 1.5 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. 14% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.4 mi with a 0.4-mi widest point. Algoma District claims this one. If the bite dies, Adelaide Lake is 1 mi to the north.
Start shallow in spring: rock bass sit in 2 to 10 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 5 to 20 ft; cold water stacks them in 12 to 30 ft. Top water on the chart: Main-lake point, a point in the 25 ft range, good in fall. Fish it in the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a ned rig (small) or a marabou jig until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 10 ft | midday & dawn | open water | 1/16 oz jig + grub, Small inline spinner |
| Summer | 5 to 20 ft | dusk | Main-lake point (25 ft) | Ned rig (small), Marabou jig |
| Fall | 8 to 22 ft | midday | Main-lake point (25 ft) | Small tube jig, Inline spinner |
| Winter | 12 to 30 ft | midday | Deep basin (83 ft) | Tungsten jig + plastic, Small spoon + spike |
Count 5 structure marks on this chart. The deepest, Deep basin, sits near 83 ft.
