53-acre lake in Bruce County, Ontario. The lake tops out around 3 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1971, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The outline encloses 53 acres, worked by 1.7 miles of shoreline, with 2 islands in the mix. With a 1.7 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end. Figure 0.6 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. Bruce County claims this one. If the bite dies, Conley Lake is 1 mi to the northeast.
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 1 to 3 ft. Through summer count on 1 to 3 ft; the winter hold is 1 to 3 ft. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 ft of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 3 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Summer | 1 to 3 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Fall | 1 to 3 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1 to 3 ft | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
5 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 3 ft, is the deepest of them.
