203-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 23 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
West Aumond Lake maps at 203 acres behind 3.6 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 82% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone. The basin spans about 1.2 mi end to end and 0.6 mi across at its widest. It sits in Nipissing District. Its nearest charted neighbour, Lalonde Lake, is 1 mi to the northwest.
In spring, yellow perch run shallow here, mostly 3 to 12 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 7 to 23 ft before dropping to 7 to 23 ft for winter. Spring yellow perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 3 ft. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small spoon tipped with worm most summer days.
