99-acre lake near British Columbia. The lake tops out around 45 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. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Start shallow in spring: cutthroat trout sit in 3 to 15 ft that time of year. They move out to 10 to 35 ft in summer and finish the year down in 10 to 40 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 20 ft, rated prime for summer cutthroat trout. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a trolled spoon (small) or a inline spinner gets it done.

|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Inline spinner (silver/gold), Small spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Trolled spoon (small), Inline spinner |
