The pressure at the bottom of a vessel filled with liquid does not depend on:

a- the acceleration of gravity
b- the liquid density
c- the height of the liquid
d- the area of the liquid surface

p = rho g h
so it depends on:
density, rho
gravity, g
h , depth

The pressure at 10 feet is the same no matter how big the lake looks on the map.
