68-acre lake in Capital Regional District, British Columbia. The lake tops out around 47 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
On the chart, Weeks Lake draws 68 acres inside 1.5 miles of shoreline. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 56% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. Tip to tip the water measures near 0.6 mi with a 0.3-mi widest point. You'll find it in Capital Regional District. Closest neighbour on DepthScout: Jarvis Lake, 4 mi east of here.
In spring, rainbow trout run shallow here, mostly 5 to 20 ft. Summer pushes them deeper, 8 to 30 ft, and winter fish settle into 8 to 40 ft. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 21 ft, rated prime for winter rainbow trout. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon most summer days.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
