Rating depth structure for rainbow trout.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
6-acre lake in Capital Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 19 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
The drawn water covers 6 acres wrapped in 0.5 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.4), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. Capital Regional District claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Young Lake, is 2 mi to the southwest.
When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 5 to 19 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 5 to 19 ft, winter 4 to 19 ft. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 3 ft of water and rates prime come winter. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 19 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 5 to 19 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 5 to 19 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (10 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 4 to 19 ft | dawn | Break off the point (3 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Boneyard Lake carries 3 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 10 ft down.
