Default Crow Lake depth map

Going to Crow Lake south of Ft Mac next week and looking for a depth map of the lake. After years of driving by and flying over going to put in a serious attempt to fish it.
Last time was 16 years ago from shore, results were poor but some one had left some 36"ish skeletons on shore so going back.

Any help would be appreciated.

I was just there last weekend and I couldn't find the access to the lake.
Maybe I'm crazy but I don't think there is one? Let us know if I'm wrong!

You can gain access to the lake on the north side,
The access road is north of the lake , you have to watch for it .
30 years ago we used to head down one if the ravines to the lake , packed the canoe down and up there about four times s year fit many years.
It's a shallow lake but you can hit jacks danged best anywhere on it

New to site so thanks for the quick advice. Tried the link and the lake is there all right but no depth shown unless I missed something. Some locals that work for us said it has some deep pockets south central so was looking for info.
There is now a road to the gravel pit at the NE end or else you get to park in the ditch where the old provincial campground used to be before the road twinning. Then it is about 250-300yds down the old trail.
16 years ago there were wooden stairs cut into some of the hills......16 years ago!
Or paddle the 3 miles in from the highway creek crossing. Pretty sure we'll bush whack our way in.
Will post how it went once we get back.
Thanks again.

Bahahaha! Holy necro-thread.

The OP had a good first month for posts but nothing since so you may be waiting for a reply.

Always wondered about Crow lake myself though...
