264-acre lake in Bulkley-Nechako Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 44 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. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Mudzenchoot Lake maps at 264 acres behind 5.5 miles of shoreline. With a shoreline index of 2.4, this water is all arms and coves — edge habitat well beyond its acreage. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 58% of the surface on the model — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 1.4 mi with a 0.6-mi widest point. It sits in Bulkley-Nechako Regional District. Its nearest charted neighbour, Chooyazi Lake, is 6 mi to the north.
When the water first warms, rainbow trout slide up into 5 to 20 ft. By summer they slide out to 8 to 30 ft, and by winter most fish are in 8 to 40 ft. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 20 ft that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.
