171-acre lake in Cariboo Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 10 ft. The depth picture is modeled, anchored to the true shoreline and the water's published max depth — a scouting aid, never a chart to run a boat by. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Drawn out, this is 171 acres of water rimmed by 3.6 miles of bank. Index 2 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. Nothing on this chart breaks 15 ft, which makes the whole surface littoral: weeds, bait and ambush cover everywhere. Call it 1.1 mi long by 0.6 mi wide at the broadest reach. The water lies in Cariboo Regional District. The nearest mapped water is Beaver Lake, 4 mi to the northeast.
Start shallow in spring: rainbow trout sit in 3 to 10 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 3 to 10 ft covers summer, 2 to 10 ft covers winter. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 5 ft range, prime in winter. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 2 to 10 ft | dawn | Break off the point (5 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Structure-wise the chart holds 6 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 9 ft.
