66-acre lake in Nipissing District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 33 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 season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Traced from the shoreline, Wolf Lake runs 66 acres with 1.9 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.7) — enough points and pockets to pattern. The basin spans about 0.7 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. You'll find it in Nipissing District. The nearest mapped water is Quennville L., 2 mi to the southeast.
Spring puts splake in skinny water — 5 to 25 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 33 ft; cold water stacks them in 7 to 33 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 13 ft, rated prime for summer splake. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A trolled spoon at the thermocline or a white tube jig (deep) covers the summer program.
