409-acre lake in Stikine Region, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 31 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The drawn water covers 409 acres wrapped in 5.8 miles of bank, with a single island in the mix. With a 2 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 67% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Call it 1.5 mi long by 0.9 mi wide at the broadest reach. It sits in Stikine Region. Its nearest charted neighbour, Bear Lake, is 4 mi to the northwest.
Early season rainbow trout use the shallows, holding in 5 to 20 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 6 to 31 ft. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 14 ft that grades prime for winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon and you're in the game.

|---|---|---|---|---|

Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 26 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.
