59-acre lake in Parry Sound District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 39 ft. The depth data here comes from the Ontario MNRF survey of 2012 (an MNRF lake survey). Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
On the chart, Wolf L. draws 59 acres inside 1.9 miles of shoreline. Index 1.8 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. 58% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water.

Start shallow in spring: brook trout sit in 2 to 15 ft that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 17 ft range, prime in summer. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm until the fish tell you otherwise.
