22-acre lake in Squamish-Lillooet Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 37 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The drawn water covers 22 acres wrapped in 0.9 miles of bank. With a 1.5 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. 78% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. End to end it runs roughly 0.3 mi, about 0.2 mi across. Squamish-Lillooet Regional District claims this one. If the bite dies, Mowson Pond is 1 mi to the east.
Early season brook trout use the shallows, holding in 2 to 15 ft. Summer is a 10 to 30 ft game here, winter a 3 to 20 ft one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 29 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm and you're in the game.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (29 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (2 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Break off the point (8 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Spring rainbow trout on Pearson Pond hold shallow, usually 5 to 20 ft. They move out to 8 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 7 to 37 ft. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 8 ft that grades prime for winter. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (8 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 7 to 37 ft | dawn | Break off the point (8 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Structure-wise the chart holds 3 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 29 ft.
