Fishing Sakwaso Lake: what the data says

12,533-acre lake in Kenora District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 15 ft. The depth data here comes from a transect sounding survey by the Ontario MNRF. The exact depth survey is published on its own because no defensible water-specific species roster was found.

On the chart, Sakwaso Lake draws 12,589 acres inside 54.7 miles of shoreline — 39 islands included. A development index of 3.5 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. Call it 7.8 mi long by 4.4 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Kenora District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Nikip Lake, 7 mi south of here.
