298-acre lake in Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 167 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 298 acres wrapped in 5.4 miles of bank — one island included. An index of 2.2 puts the bank firmly in maze territory: point after pocket after cove, every one a casting target. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 6% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 1.9 mi with a 0.6-mi widest point. It sits in Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District. Lachmach Lake sits 3 mi southeast — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring puts cutthroat trout in skinny water — 3 to 15 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 10 to 35 ft; cold water stacks them in 10 to 40 ft. Main-lake point is the standout, a point at roughly 42 ft, rated prime for winter cutthroat trout. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A trolled spoon (small) or an inline spinner covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Inline spinner (silver/gold), Small spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (42 ft) | Trolled spoon (small), Inline spinner |
| Fall | 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (42 ft) | Casting spoon, Inline spinner |
| Winter | 10 to 40 ft | dawn | Main-lake point (42 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Marabou jig |
