Get in touch with T & D cabins on Facebook! They have all the information you could possibly need! And they're absolutely wonderful people!

Thanks for the question! Finding decent depth charts for lakes in the province is actually really hit or miss. https://anglersedgemapping.com/ does have really good maps for some lakes but not Amisk. Other than that the only thing I have access to are some of the old government bathy charts from the 70's. You can see them on the site here: https://sasklakes.ca/amisk-lake/#bathy One of the camps on the lake like https://tdamisk.com/ may have more info as well it might be worth reaching out to them.

Love the lake after one visit. Thinking of buying at Denare. Have a sail boat, and a question; where do we find average depths and lake data? Maps? Thanks.
