Fishing in Squamish-Lillooet Regional District, British Columbia

What this local map set contains

The Squamish-Lillooet Regional District directory currently covers 48 lakes or reservoirs. 6 charts use measured bathymetry from a published source; 42 charts are clearly labeled as modeled. Recorded maximum depths range from 20 to 849 ft, with a median of 75 ft. Those figures describe each chart's deepest recorded or modeled point, not a safe navigation depth.

Species records are attached to 48 of 48 waters. The most frequently cataloged targets are Rainbow Trout (47), Kokanee (16), Cutthroat Trout (13), Dolly Varden (13) and Lake Whitefish (7). These are coverage counts, not abundance estimates or catch forecasts; open the individual map to see the evidence and seasonal context attached to that water.

Three useful maps to compare first

1. Stump Lake: 54 ft maximum; survey-backed contours; 5 cataloged target species.
2. Mosquito Lake: 43 ft maximum; survey-backed contours; 2 cataloged target species.
3. Pearson Pond: 37 ft maximum; survey-backed contours; 2 cataloged target species.

Start with a survey-backed chart when exact contour shape matters most. Use a modeled chart as broad planning context, then verify depths on the water. Comparing the three examples above also shows whether this area offers one dominant basin type or genuinely different shallow, deep, lake and river options. Access is separate from map coverage: confirm launches, shore rights, closures and posted rules before making the trip.
