14-acre reservoir near Wynyard. The lake tops out around 21 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. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
On the chart, Wynyard_Reservoir draws 14 acres inside 1.2 miles of shoreline. An index of 2.3 puts the bank firmly in maze territory: point after pocket after cove, every one a casting target. 71% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water. The basin spans about 0.4 mi end to end. You'll find it in Division No. 10. The nearest mapped water is Little Quill Lake, 13 mi to the north.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brook trout in 2 to 15 ft. As the season builds they drop to 6 to 21 ft, wintering in 3 to 20 ft. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 18 ft range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm gets it done.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 2 to 15 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small inline spinner (gold), Tiny spoon |
| Summer | 6 to 21 ft | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (18 ft) | Small spoon fished deep, Trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm |
| Fall | 2 to 15 ft | midday & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Small spoon (orange), Spinner |
| Winter | 3 to 20 ft | dawn | Deep basin (18 ft) | Small jigging spoon, Tungsten jig + plastic |
Spring brown trout on Wynyard_Reservoir hold shallow, usually 3 to 21 ft. Depth-wise the year is flat: 6 to 21 ft in summer, 3 to 21 ft once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 9 ft, prime for summer. Prime time lands in after dark and early morning. The summer box starts with a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night).
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 3 to 21 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Summer | 6 to 21 ft | night & dawn | Break off the point (9 ft) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Fall | 4 to 21 ft | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 21 ft | dawn | Break off the point (9 ft) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Start shallow in spring: rainbow trout sit in 5 to 20 ft that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 6 to 21 ft, and winter fish settle into 4 to 21 ft. The spot to know is Break off the point, a drop-off in about 9 ft of water that rates prime for rainbow trout in winter. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a dodger + spoon (deep troll) or a flutter spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spring | 5 to 20 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Inline spinner (silver), Small spoon |
| Summer | 6 to 21 ft | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (9 ft) | Dodger + spoon (deep troll), Flutter spoon |
| Fall | 6 to 21 ft | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (8 ft) | Casting spoon, Jerkbait over shoals |
| Winter | 4 to 21 ft | dawn | Break off the point (9 ft) | Jigging spoon, Tube jig (white) |
