51-acre reservoir near Lander Region. The lake tops out around 5 ft. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
The outline encloses 54 acres, worked by 1.1 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. There is no deep basin to speak of — the entire surface is under ~15 ft, prime weed water end to end. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. Fremont County claims this one. If the bite dies, Tomahawk Lake is 3 mi to the west.
Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 1 to 5 ft. Through summer count on 2 to 5 ft; the winter hold is 1 to 5 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 4 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 5 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (5 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 5 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (4 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 5 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (5 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 1 to 5 ft | dawn | Deep basin (4 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 1 to 5 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 5 ft, winter 1 to 5 ft. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 2 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 |
