543-acre lake near British Columbia. The lake tops out around 23 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. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Start shallow in spring: arctic grayling sit in 2 to 10 ft that time of year. By summer they slide out to 3 to 15 ft, and by winter most fish are in 7 to 23 ft. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 20 ft of water that rates prime for arctic grayling in winter. Plan around the evening and early morning in the warm months. Tie on a dry fly (parachute adams, elk hair caddis) or a small inline spinner and you're in the game.
