Ten Mile Lake is a lake in Copper River, Alaska and covers about 90 acres and reaches about 42 feet.
Ten Mile Lake is compact enough to fish slowly, but a change in weeds or bottom can still split it into separate patterns.
Fish and Baits
Fish listed for Ten Mile Lake include Arctic Grayling, Lake Trout, and Sockeye Salmon.
At Ten Mile Lake, for arctic grayling, use a small dry fly, nymph, spinner, or spoon near moving water and surface insects.
For lake trout, jig a spoon or tube on cold rocky structure, or troll a minnow lure at the depth holding fish at Ten Mile Lake.
At Ten Mile Lake, for sockeye salmon, use a small legal fly or lure along an active travel route and check current run rules.
When fishing Ten Mile Lake, sockeye Salmon also appear in stocking records. For a trip to Ten Mile Lake, that proves releases occurred, not that every stocked fish still survives or is common now.
How to Read the Water
On Ten Mile Lake, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
Season by Season
Around Ten Mile Lake, shallow water is worth a careful look in spring and again during fall; bright summer days favor shade, weeds, or deeper breaks; under ice, a small depth change can be more useful than a long move.
A Simple Tackle Plan
When fishing Ten Mile Lake, a light spinning rod, thin line, a few small spoons, inline spinners, and jigs cover the listed trout; carry one slightly heavier setup when other fish or windy water call for more control.
Record the wind, water color, depth of the working lure, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce at Ten Mile Lake.
