96-acre lake in Fraser-Fort George Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 33 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Drawn out, this is 96 acres of water rimmed by 2 miles of bank. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.5) — enough points and pockets to pattern. The shallow band under 15 ft claims about 56% of the surface — that's where the groceries are. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.7 mi with a 0.4-mi widest point. The water lies in Fraser-Fort George Regional District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Tureen Lake, 1 mi north of here.
Spring puts rainbow trout in skinny water — 5 to 20 ft is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 8 to 30 ft; cold water stacks them in 7 to 33 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 16 ft, rated prime for winter rainbow trout. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. 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 | Break off the point (16 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (16 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 9 to 33 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (16 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
