13-acre lake near Lander Region. The lake tops out around 22 ft. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Moose Lake maps at 12 acres behind 0.7 miles of shoreline. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.4) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. About 44% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone. It sits in Fremont County. If the bite dies, Splake Lake is 1 mi to the northeast.
Come spring, look for brook trout tight to the bank in 2 to 15 ft. Expect a summer slide to 7 to 22 ft, then a winter hold in 3 to 20 ft. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 19 ft of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 7 to 22 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (19 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: cutthroat trout in 3 to 15 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 6 to 22 ft before dropping to 6 to 22 ft for winter. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 10 ft of water that rates prime for cutthroat trout in summer. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a trolled spoon (small) or an inline spinner gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver/gold), Small spoon |
| Summer | 6 to 22 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 ft) | Trolled spoon (small), Inline spinner |
| Fall | 4 to 22 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Inline spinner |
| Winter | 6 to 22 ft | dawn | Break off the point (10 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Marabou jig |
