Fishing Revelle Lake: what the data says
19-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 25 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
On the chart, Revelle Lake draws 19 acres inside 0.8 miles of shoreline. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.3) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. About 33% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
Rainbow Trout fishing at Revelle Lake
Spring puts rainbow trout in skinny water — 5 to 20 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 7 to 25 ft, wintering in 5 to 25 ft. Winter rainbow trout concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 11 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon covers the summer program.
| 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 | 7 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (11 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 7 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 5 to 25 ft | dawn | Break off the point (11 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
Kokanee fishing at Revelle Lake
In spring, kokanee run shallow here, mostly 8 to 25 ft. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 8 to 25 ft, winter 6 to 25 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 21 ft, rated prime for spring kokanee. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger or a kokanee bug + corn most summer days.
