195-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 36 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The outline encloses 194 acres, worked by 4 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (2) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. 80% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. End to end it runs roughly 0.9 mi, about 0.8 mi across. It sits in Cariboo Regional District. If the bite dies, Blue Lake is 1 mi to the north.
When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 5 to 20 ft. By summer they slide out to 8 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 7 to 36 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 20 ft that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 7 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Break off the point (20 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Come spring, look for kokanee tight to the bank in 10 to 30 ft. Expect a summer slide to 11 to 36 ft, then a winter hold in 9 to 36 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 33 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning. A dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger or a kokanee bug + corn is the honest summer answer here.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Deep basin (33 ft) | Small dodger + squid (pink), Wedding-ring spinner + corn |
| Summer | 11 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 30 to 70 ft | dawn | Deep basin (33 ft) | Dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger, Kokanee bug + corn |
| Fall | 5 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (33 ft) | Dodger + squid (deeper red/purple), Small spoon |
| Winter | 9 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 20 to 80 ft | dawn | Deep basin (33 ft) | Small glow jig + corn or maggot, Tiny spoon |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 11 to 36 ft. Summer keeps them at 11 to 36 ft, and they winter in 11 to 36 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 33 ft, rated prime for summer lake whitefish. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 11 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (20 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 11 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 40 to 90 ft | dawn | Deep basin (33 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 11 to 36 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 70 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (33 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring burbot on Eveline Lake hold shallow, usually 11 to 36 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 11 to 36 ft in summer, 9 to 36 ft once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 33 ft, prime for spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.

Structure-wise the chart holds 6 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 33 ft.

Eveline Lake is about 36 ft (11 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Anglers target rainbow trout, kokanee, lake whitefish, burbot on Eveline Lake. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 33 ft of water that rates prime for kokanee in summer. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For rainbow trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Eveline Lake is regulated by the BC freshwater fishing synopsis. Check the official British Columbia regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
