Rating depth structure for brook trout.

13-acre lake near Timber Bay. The lake tops out around 33 ft. The contours come from a model of the real basin shape and its known max depth. Read them as probabilities, not soundings, and keep them out of navigation decisions. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Traced from the shoreline, Sand Lake runs 13 acres with 0.9 miles of edge. Index 1.8 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. 49% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end. You'll find it in Division No. 18. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Jade Lake, 2 mi east of here.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 30 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 28 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (28 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Break off the point (15 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Count 4 structure marks on this chart. The deepest, Deep basin, sits near 28 ft.
