143-acre lake in Fraser-Fort George Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 26 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. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
On the chart, Tureen Lake draws 143 acres inside 2.7 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.6) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Roughly 67% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. Tip to tip the water measures near 1 mi with a 0.4-mi widest point. The water lies in Fraser-Fort George Regional District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Teardrop Lake, 1 mi south of here.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 5 to 20 ft. Midsummer fish sit out in 7 to 26 ft before dropping to 5 to 26 ft for winter. Spring rainbow trout concentrate at Main-lake point, a prime-rated point around 8 ft. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
