Rating depth structure for rainbow trout.
Recent public catches load as you reach this section.
145-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 22 ft. What you see is a modeled chart: the shoreline is real, the max depth is published, and the contours between are estimated. Plan with it; don't navigate by it. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Traced from the shoreline, Suzanne Bung'Hun runs 145 acres with 3 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.8) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Roughly 82% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. Figure 1.3 mi of water from one end to the other, 0.3 mi at the beam. You'll find it in Fraser-Fort George Regional District. For a second option, Busnatsidzih Lake lies 3 mi south.
Spring puts rainbow trout in skinny water — 5 to 20 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 22 ft, wintering in 4 to 22 ft. Spring rainbow trout concentrate at Main-lake point, a prime-rated point around 8 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon covers the summer program.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| 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 | 6 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 6 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 4 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
In spring, kokanee run shallow here, mostly 7 to 22 ft. Summer keeps them at 7 to 22 ft, and they winter in 6 to 22 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 19 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.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 10 to 30 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Small dodger + squid (pink), Wedding-ring spinner + corn |
| Summer | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 30 to 70 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Dodger + pink/orange squid on downrigger, Kokanee bug + corn |
| Fall | 3 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 5 to 40 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Dodger + squid (deeper red/purple), Small spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 20 to 80 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Small glow jig + corn or maggot, Tiny spoon |
Early season lake whitefish use the shallows, holding in 7 to 22 ft. Even in summer they hold at 7 to 22 ft; winter keeps them in 7 to 22 ft. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 19 ft, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon and you're in the game.

| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 15 to 45 ft | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Summer | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 40 to 90 ft | dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Fall | 6 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 8 to 30 ft | dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Winter | 7 to 22 ft chart-limited; documented 25 to 70 ft | midday & dawn | Deep basin (19 ft) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring puts burbot in skinny water — 7 to 22 ft is the zone. Summer fish stay in 7 to 22 ft, and winter fish hold in 6 to 22 ft. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 19 ft, rated prime for spring burbot. Plan around after dark and midday in the warm months. A heavy jig + cut bait covers the summer program.

Anglers target rainbow trout, kokanee, lake whitefish, burbot on Suzanne Bung'Hun. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 19 ft of water that rates prime for kokanee in spring. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For rainbow trout, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
