Rating depth structure for rainbow trout.

490-acre lake in Cariboo Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 40 ft. The contours come from a model of the real basin shape and its known max depth. Read them as probabilities, not soundings, and keep them out of navigation decisions. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
On the chart, Fletcher Lake draws 490 acres inside 5.5 miles of shoreline. Index 1.8 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 42% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 1.8 mi with a 0.8-mi widest point. You'll find it in Cariboo Regional District. For a second option, Abrams Lake lies 1 mi southeast.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: rainbow trout in 5 to 20 ft. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 30 ft, wintering in 8 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 18 ft range, prime in winter. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (10 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (18 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (10 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
