62-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 27 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. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
The drawn water covers 61 acres wrapped in 2 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. About 74% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
Come spring, look for rainbow trout tight to the bank in 5 to 20 ft. Expect a summer slide to 7 to 27 ft, then a winter hold in 5 to 27 ft. Start at Main-lake point. It's a point holding about 8 ft of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 7 to 27 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 8 to 27 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 5 to 27 ft | dawn | Deep basin (23 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
