141-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 46 ft. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 143 acres, worked by 4.7 miles of shoreline. The 2.8 development index tells the story — a convoluted bank whose fishable edge far outruns the acreage. About 61% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone. End to end it runs roughly 1.5 mi, about 0.5 mi across. Sudbury District claims this one. Centre Lake sits 2 mi northeast — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring lake trout on Stobie Lake hold shallow, usually 10 to 40 ft. They move out to 14 to 46 ft in summer and finish the year down in 12 to 46 ft. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 39 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a white tube jig (deep) or a magnum spoon on downrigger.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (12 ft) | Casting spoon over shoals, Jerkbait (shallow) |
| Summer | 14 to 46 ft | dawn | Deep basin (39 ft) | White tube jig (deep), Magnum spoon on downrigger |
| Fall | 9 to 46 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (12 ft) | Heavy casting spoon, Jigging rap over reefs |
| Winter | 12 to 46 ft | dawn | Deep basin (39 ft) | White tube jig, Airplane jig |
