Rating depth structure for rainbow trout.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
252-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 16 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
On the chart, Llgitiyuz Lake draws 251 acres inside 3.3 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.5) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Figure 1.4 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.4 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Bulkley-Nechako Regional District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Hewson Lake, 4 mi northeast of here.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 4 to 16 ft. Summer keeps them at 4 to 16 ft, and they winter in 3 to 16 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 7 ft, rated prime for winter rainbow trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 4 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 4 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (7 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 5 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 3 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Break off the point (7 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Spring puts kokanee in skinny water — 5 to 16 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 5 to 16 ft, and winter fish hold in 4 to 16 ft. Spring kokanee concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 14 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger or a kokanee bug + corn covers the summer program.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Small dodger + squid (pink), Wedding-ring spinner + corn |
| Summer | 5 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 30 to 70 ft | dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger, Kokanee bug + corn |
| Fall | 2 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Dodger + squid (deeper red/purple), Small spoon |
| Winter | 4 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 20 to 80 ft | dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Small glow jig + corn or maggot, Tiny spoon |
Spring lake whitefish on Llgitiyuz Lake hold shallow, usually 5 to 16 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 5 to 16 ft in summer, 5 to 16 ft once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 14 ft that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (7 ft) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 5 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 40 to 90 ft | dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 4 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Break off the point (7 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 5 to 16 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 70 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (14 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 5 to 16 ft. Summer keeps them at 5 to 16 ft, and they winter in 4 to 16 ft. Spring burbot concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 14 ft. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Llgitiyuz Lake is about 16 ft (5 m) deep at its deepest point. The contours here are modeled from the water's real shape and maximum depth, so treat them as a rough guide.
Anglers target rainbow trout, kokanee, lake whitefish, burbot on Llgitiyuz Lake. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 14 ft of water that rates prime for kokanee in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For rainbow trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
