109-acre lake in Mount Waddington Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 82 ft. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The drawn water covers 109 acres wrapped in 3.1 miles of bank — one island included. With a 2.1 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. 61% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 1.2 mi end to end and 0.3 mi across at its widest. Mount Waddington Regional District claims this one. Its nearest charted neighbour, Roselle Lake, is 1 mi to the northwest.
Spring puts cutthroat trout in skinny water — 3 to 15 ft is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 10 to 35 ft, wintering in 10 to 40 ft. Fall cutthroat trout concentrate at Main-lake point, a prime-rated point around 21 ft. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A trolled spoon (small) or an inline spinner covers the summer program.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | open water | Inline spinner (silver/gold), Small spoon |
| Summer | 10 to 35 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (21 ft) | Trolled spoon (small), Inline spinner |
| Fall | 5 to 25 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (21 ft) | Casting spoon, Inline spinner |
| Winter | 10 to 40 ft | dawn | Main-lake point (21 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Marabou jig |
