Rating depth structure for rainbow trout.

405-acre lake in Cariboo Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 10 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
The drawn water covers 405 acres wrapped in 6 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (2.1) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout. The basin spans about 2.4 mi end to end and 0.5 mi across at its widest. Cariboo Regional District claims this one. Euchiniko Lakes sits 4 mi west — the closest neighbouring chart.
Come spring, look for rainbow trout tight to the bank in 3 to 10 ft. Through summer count on 3 to 10 ft; the winter hold is 2 to 10 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 5 ft that scores prime in winter. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 3 to 10 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 2 to 10 ft | dawn | Break off the point (5 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
6 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 9 ft, is the deepest of them.
