39-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 43 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Traced from the shoreline, Kenny Lake runs 39 acres with 1.1 miles of edge. At index 1.2 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 38% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Call it 0.4 mi long by 0.3 mi wide at the broadest reach. You'll find it in Cariboo Regional District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Black Lake, 1 mi west of here.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 5 to 20 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 8 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 8 to 40 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 19 ft, rated prime for winter rainbow trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (11 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (19 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (11 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Break off the point (19 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Spring puts kokanee in skinny water — 10 to 30 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 13 to 43 ft, wintering in 11 to 43 ft. Summer kokanee concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 37 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger or a kokanee bug + corn covers the summer program.
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 | 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Break off the point (19 ft) | Small dodger + squid (pink), Wedding-ring spinner + corn |
| Summer | 13 to 43 ft chart-limited; documented 30 to 70 ft | dawn | Deep basin (37 ft) | Dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger, Kokanee bug + corn |
| Fall | 5 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (37 ft) | Dodger + squid (deeper red/purple), Small spoon |
| Winter | 11 to 43 ft chart-limited; documented 20 to 80 ft | dawn | Deep basin (37 ft) | Small glow jig + corn or maggot, Tiny spoon |
Spring lake whitefish on Kenny Lake hold shallow, usually 13 to 43 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 13 to 43 ft in summer, 13 to 43 ft once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 37 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 13 to 43 ft chart-limited; documented 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (19 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 13 to 43 ft chart-limited; documented 40 to 90 ft | dawn | Deep basin (37 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Break off the point (19 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 13 to 43 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 70 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (37 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 13 to 43 ft. Summer keeps them at 13 to 43 ft, and they winter in 11 to 43 ft. Spring burbot concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 37 ft. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Kenny Lake is about 43 ft (13 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 rainbow trout, kokanee, lake whitefish, burbot on Kenny Lake. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 37 ft of water that rates prime for kokanee in summer. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For rainbow 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.
Fishing on Kenny Lake is regulated by the BC freshwater fishing synopsis. Check the official British Columbia regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
