3-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 15 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
On the chart, Blue Lake draws 3 acres inside 0.3 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.4), so the story is the bottom, not the bank.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 4 to 15 ft. Summer keeps them at 4 to 15 ft, and they winter in 3 to 15 ft. Winter rainbow trout concentrate at Shoreline break, a prime-rated drop-off around 7 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 4 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (7 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 4 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (7 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 4 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (7 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 3 to 15 ft | dawn | Shoreline break (7 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
