128-acre lake in Bulkley-Nechako Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 36 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 128 acres, worked by 3.2 miles of shoreline. With a 2 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. Roughly 79% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. Call it 1.3 mi long by 0.5 mi wide at the broadest reach. Bulkley-Nechako Regional District claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Johnson Lake, is 4 mi to the southeast.
Early season rainbow trout use the shallows, holding in 5 to 20 ft. Summer is an 8 to 30 ft game here, winter a 7 to 36 ft one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 16 ft, prime for winter. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (16 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 7 to 36 ft | dawn | Break off the point (16 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
