Spring cutthroat trout on Anutz Lake hold shallow, usually 3 to 15 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 35 ft, and winter fish settle into 10 to 40 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Main-lake point: a point around 34 ft that scores prime in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Tie on a trolled spoon (small) or a inline spinner and you're in the game.
