64-acre lake near Highland. The lake tops out around 25 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The depth data here comes from Murray & Pullar's Scottish loch survey of 1903, digitized from the bathymetric atlas published in 1910. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
The outline encloses 64 acres, worked by 2.2 miles of shoreline. With a 2 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. Roughly 87% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives. The basin spans about 0.9 mi end to end and 0.2 mi across at its widest. It sits in Highland. Loch h-Eaglais sits 5 mi west — the closest neighbouring chart.
Spring puts brown trout in skinny water — 3 to 25 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 8 to 25 ft, and winter fish hold in 4 to 25 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 14 ft, rated prime for summer brown trout. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. A spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) covers the summer program.
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 | 3 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (3 ft) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Summer | 8 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 60 ft | night & dawn | Break off the point (14 ft) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Fall | 4 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 30 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (3 ft) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Winter | 4 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 35 ft | dawn | Break off the point (14 ft) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 3 to 12 ft. Summer is a 7 to 25 ft game here, winter an 8 to 25 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 25 ft, prime for fall. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
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 | 3 to 12 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Summer | 7 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 28 ft | dawn | Deep basin (25 ft) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Fall | 8 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 33 ft | midday | Deep basin (25 ft) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 8 to 25 ft chart-limited; documented 12 to 33 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (25 ft) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 2 to 8 ft. They move out to 8 to 20 ft in summer and finish the year down in 5 to 15 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 ft that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 8 ft | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Summer | 8 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (14 ft) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Fall | 6 to 18 ft | midday & dawn | Break off the point (14 ft) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 5 to 15 ft | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 ft) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
6 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 25 ft, is the deepest of them.
Lochan Lùnn Dà - Bhrà is about 25 ft (8 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth data here comes from Murray & Pullar's Scottish loch survey of 1903, digitized from the bathymetric atlas published in 1910.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike on Lochan Lùnn Dà - Bhrà. 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 25 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
