79-acre lake in Algoma District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 53 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1982 (a transect sounding survey). The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Traced from the shoreline, Regal Lake runs 79 acres with 2.3 miles of edge. Index 1.9 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. Roughly 24% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. Figure 0.8 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. The water lies in Algoma District.

The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 15 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
