11-acre lake in Sudbury District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 15 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. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 1974, a decades-old survey (a transect sounding survey). Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Traced from the shoreline, Wee Lake runs 11 acres with 0.6 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.2 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. The water lies in Sudbury District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Upper Kasasway Lake, 1 mi southwest of here.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. The depth story barely changes: 5 to 15 ft through summer, 2 to 15 ft in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 14 ft of water that rates prime for brook trout in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 5 to 15 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (14 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 15 ft chart-limited; documented 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Wee Lake carries 3 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 14 ft down.
