65-acre lake in Fraser-Fort George Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 30 ft. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
The outline encloses 65 acres, worked by 2.1 miles of shoreline. A middling shoreline index (1.8) gives it some bays to work without being a maze. 84% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.8 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. It sits in Fraser-Fort George Regional District. Loop Lake sits 1 mi north — the closest neighbouring chart.
Come spring, look for rainbow trout tight to the bank in 5 to 20 ft. Expect a summer slide to 8 to 30 ft, then a winter hold in 6 to 30 ft. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 20 ft of water and rates prime come winter. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (7 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 8 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 9 to 30 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (20 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 6 to 30 ft | dawn | Break off the point (20 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
