Fishing Fox Lake: what the data says
11-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 17 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Fox Lake maps at 11 acres behind 0.5 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.1), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. Roughly 61% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives.
Cutthroat Trout fishing at Fox Lake
Spring puts cutthroat trout in skinny water — 3 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 5 to 17 ft, wintering in 4 to 17 ft. Summer cutthroat trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 8 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A trolled spoon (small) or a inline spinner covers the summer program.
