121-acre lake near Québec. The lake tops out around 60 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. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Drawn out, this is 121 acres of water rimmed by 2 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 7% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Figure 0.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.4 mi at the beam. You'll find it in La Vallée-de-la-Gatineau MRC. The nearest mapped water is Lac Savary, 2 mi to the north.

In spring, brook trout run shallow here, mostly 2 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 3 to 20 ft. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a feeding flat at roughly 12 ft, rated good for spring brook trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm most summer days.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Printemps | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (12 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Été | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |

Spring puts lake trout in skinny water — 10 to 40 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 18 to 60 ft; cold water stacks them in 15 to 60 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 60 ft, rated prime for summer lake trout. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger covers the summer program.

Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 15 to 45 ft. Summer is an 18 to 60 ft game here, winter an 18 to 60 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 60 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.

Early season cisco (lake herring) use the shallows, holding in 10 to 40 ft. Summer is an 18 to 60 ft game here, winter a 20 to 60 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 60 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a vertical flutter spoon (small) or a drop-shot micro plastic and you're in the game.

Come spring, look for walleye tight to the bank in 4 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 15 to 35 ft, then a winter hold in 20 to 40 ft. Start at Back-bay flat. It's a feeding flat holding about 15 ft of water and rates good come summer. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. A crawler harness on bottom bouncer or a deep crankbait (trolled) is the honest summer answer here.

Come spring, look for yellow perch tight to the bank in 3 to 12 ft. They move out to 10 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 15 to 35 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a feeding flat around 12 ft that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm is the honest summer answer here.
