72-acre lake in Kitimat-Stikine Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 28 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. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The drawn water covers 72 acres wrapped in 1.8 miles of bank. A middling shoreline index (1.5) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 51% of this chart, as modeled. Call it 0.5 mi long by 0.4 mi wide at the broadest reach. Kitimat-Stikine Regional District claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Bob Quinn Lake, is 1 mi to the northwest.
When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 5 to 20 ft. Summer is a 7 to 28 ft game here, winter a 6 to 28 ft one. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 13 ft of water and rates prime come winter. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 7 to 28 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (13 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 8 to 28 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
