58-acre lake near Jackson Region. The lake tops out around 37 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Soda Lake maps at 57 acres behind 1.3 miles of shoreline. A shoreline index of 1.2 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. 40% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.5 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. Teton County claims this one. If the bite dies, Clear Creek Lake 1 is 11 mi to the south.
Start shallow in spring: cutthroat trout sit in 3 to 15 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 10 to 35 ft, and winter fish settle into 9 to 37 ft. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 17 ft of water that rates prime for cutthroat trout in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a trolled spoon (small) or an inline spinner until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Inline spinner (silver/gold), Small spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (17 ft) | Trolled spoon (small), Inline spinner |
| Fall | 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (9 ft) | Casting spoon, Inline spinner |
| Winter | 9 to 37 ft | dawn | Break off the point (17 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Marabou jig |
