57-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 20 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Drawn out, this is 57 acres of water rimmed by 1.1 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 75% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.4 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. You'll find it in Charlevoix MRC. The nearest mapped water is Grand lac aux Montagnais, 1 mi to the east.

Spring puts brook trout in skinny water — 2 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 20 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Summer brook trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 20 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm covers the summer program.
