885-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 23 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The drawn water covers 883 acres wrapped in 5.7 miles of bank. Nearly circular (index 1.4), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. About 75% 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 6 to 23 ft, then a winter hold in 5 to 23 ft. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 10 ft of water and rates prime come winter. 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 | 6 to 23 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 7 to 23 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 5 to 23 ft | dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Spring puts lake whitefish in skinny water — 7 to 23 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 7 to 23 ft, and winter fish hold in 7 to 23 ft. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 20 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 7 to 23 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 7 to 23 ft | dawn | Deep basin (20 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 6 to 23 ft | dusk | Break off the point (10 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 7 to 23 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (20 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
