142-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 7 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Traced from the shoreline, Kellington Lake runs 142 acres with 2.6 miles of edge. Index 1.6 on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. Figure 1 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.4 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Cariboo Regional District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Weller Lake, 1 mi northwest of here.
These fish are listed in an exact-water agency record as forage or ecological context. They are not target-species profiles and do not affect DepthScout's Prime, Good, or Fair spot ratings.

Start shallow in spring: rainbow trout sit in 2 to 7 ft that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 2 to 7 ft covers summer, 1 to 7 ft covers winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for rainbow trout in winter. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
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 | 2 to 7 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 2 to 7 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 2 to 7 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 1 to 7 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Break off the point (3 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
6 pieces of structure are mapped here — Main-lake point, around 7 ft, is the deepest of them.
