Rating depth structure for brook trout.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
10-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 10 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The drawn water covers 10 acres wrapped in 0.5 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. Nothing on this chart breaks 15 ft, which makes the whole surface littoral: weeds, bait and ambush cover everywhere. East Kootenay Regional District claims this one. If the bite dies, Larix Lake is 0 mi to the southeast.
Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 10 ft. Even in summer they hold at 3 to 10 ft; winter keeps them in 2 to 10 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 9 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.
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 | 1 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (3 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (9 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (9 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Come spring, look for bull trout tight to the bank in 3 to 10 ft. Through summer count on 3 to 10 ft; the winter hold is 3 to 10 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 9 ft that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A trolled plug on downrigger or a heavy jigging spoon is the honest summer answer here.
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 | 3 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 40 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (5 ft) | Large jointed plug, 6" swimbait (kokanee/trout pattern) |
| Summer | 3 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 30 to 90 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (9 ft) | Trolled plug on downrigger, Heavy jigging spoon |
| Fall | 1 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (5 ft) | Large glide bait, Jointed plug |
| Winter | 3 to 10 ft chart-limited; documented 20 to 70 ft | dawn | Shoreline break (5 ft) | Heavy spoon (slow lift), Large soft swimbait |
3 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 9 ft, is the deepest of them.

Grizzly Lake is about 10 ft (3 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.
Anglers target brook trout, bull trout on Grizzly Lake.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 9 ft of water that rates prime for bull trout in summer. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For brook 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.
