75-acre lake in Carbon County, Montana. The lake tops out around 135 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Traced from the shoreline, Albino Lake runs 88 acres with 1.9 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.5) — enough points and pockets to pattern. About 11% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone. Figure 0.7 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. The water lies in Carbon County. For a second option, Golden Lake lies 1 mi northwest.
Come spring, look for cutthroat trout tight to the bank in 3 to 15 ft. They move out to 10 to 35 ft in summer and finish the year down in 10 to 40 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Secondary point: a point around 24 ft that scores prime in fall. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A trolled spoon (small) or an inline spinner is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Inline spinner (silver/gold), Small spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (32 ft) | Trolled spoon (small), Inline spinner |
| Fall | 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (24 ft) | Casting spoon, Inline spinner |
| Winter | 10 to 40 ft | dawn | Main-lake point (32 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Marabou jig |
