16-acre lake near Waskesiu Lake. The lake tops out around 33 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Drawn out, this is 16 acres of water rimmed by 0.8 miles of bank. At index 1.4 the outline is almost a bowl — read the depth changes, not the shoreline. Littoral water — the productive band under ~15 ft — makes up 40% of this chart, as modeled. Figure 0.3 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.2 mi at the beam. The water lies in Division No. 15. For a second option, Mcphee Lake lies 3 mi north.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 5 to 20 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 8 to 30 ft before dropping to 7 to 33 ft for winter. Winter rainbow trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 15 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (15 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 9 to 33 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 7 to 33 ft | dawn | Break off the point (15 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
