68-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 16 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Stalker Lake maps at 67 acres behind 1.5 miles of shoreline. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 91% of this chart, as modeled. Figure 0.5 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.4 mi at the beam. Sudbury District claims this one. Savage Lake sits 2 mi south — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring brook trout on Stalker Lake hold shallow, usually 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 5 to 16 ft in summer and finish the year down in 2 to 16 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 14 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
