I suggest, you simply download the global bathymetry map from https://www.gebco.net/data_and_products/gridded_bathymetry_data/
You may also be able to register the WMS layer from https://www.gebco.net/data_and_products/gebco_web_services/web_map_service/ and register it to the platform
The difference between the WMS and the data itself is, that the WMS does not offer real data, just shaded image map.
There are no data from big lakes unfortunately, but I'm not aware of any data, where you can get information about lake depth :-(
In order to develop a Bathymetry Map, you need to download two layers. One with an object layer for lakes and the other with depth layer. For this purpose, you can use both QGIS and GrassGIS. Algorithms will convert the available raster to the form of isolines. In the properties of the layer, specify the extent of the layer information. You can use the lake layer as a base layer.
