11-acre lake in Cochrane District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 75 ft. The depth chart comes from Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
The outline encloses 11 acres, worked by 0.6 miles of shoreline. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. About 61% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Call it 0.3 mi long. Cochrane District claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Haskins Lake, is 0 mi to the northwest.
When the water first warms, brook trout slide up into 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 10 to 30 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. Start at Shoreline break. It's a drop-off holding about 19 ft of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (19 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Shoreline break (19 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
