35-acre lake near ᑳ ᓃᑳᓃᐟ Nekaneet. The lake tops out around 11 ft. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The drawn water covers 35 acres wrapped in 1.4 miles of bank, with a single island in the mix. With a 1.7 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. The basin spans about 0.6 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. It sits in Division No. 4. Blacker Lake sits 4 mi east — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring brook trout on Loch Leven Lake hold shallow, usually 1 to 11 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 3 to 11 ft in summer, 2 to 11 ft once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 9 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 1 to 11 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 11 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (9 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 1 to 11 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 2 to 11 ft | dawn | Deep basin (9 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Early season rainbow trout use the shallows, holding in 3 to 11 ft. Even in summer they hold at 3 to 11 ft; winter keeps them in 2 to 11 ft. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 5 ft that grades prime for winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 11 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 3 to 11 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 3 to 11 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 2 to 11 ft | dawn | Break off the point (5 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Structure-wise the chart holds 7 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 9 ft.
