Fishing Wasley Lake: what the data says
55-acre lake in British Columbia. The lake tops out around 50 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Traced from the shoreline, Wasley Lake runs 55 acres with 2.1 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 2) — enough points and pockets to pattern. Roughly 51% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives.
Rainbow Trout fishing at Wasley Lake
The spring pattern is a shallow one: rainbow trout in 5 to 20 ft. As the season builds they drop to 8 to 30 ft, wintering in 8 to 40 ft. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 23-ft range, prime in winter. Time it for early morning and the evening.
