Use the shape you can see at Sullivan Lake: check the best cover, the first drop, and one open-water line before moving.
Sullivan Lake is a deep, clear mountain lake in the Salmo-Priest area with trout, kokanee, burbot, and very limited shallow habitat.
Troll for kokanee, cast small spoons for rainbow or cutthroat trout, and use a bottom presentation during low light if burbot are the target.
Steep forested slopes put deep water close to shore. Sullivan Creek and the north end offer gentler structure than much of the long deep end.
After the first bite on Sullivan Lake, note whether it came from moving water, rock, weeds, wood, or open water because that one detail is more useful than a broad report from another end of the lake and tells you what kind of feature to repeat nearby.
Keep Sullivan Lake's open-water fish and shoreline fish on separate passes because the main targets here include rainbow trout, westslope cutthroat trout, kokanee salmon and burbot, and those fish do not all use the same cover, depth, or lure speed even when they are feeding in the same part of the lake.
Before leaving Sullivan Lake, compare the best feature at two nearby depths and change lure speed once so that short check shows whether the problem is the location or the presentation without turning the rest of the trip into random casting.
The main difference is easy to see: Sullivan Lake is a deep, clear mountain lake in the Salmo-Priest area with trout, kokanee, burbot, and very limited shallow habitat.
Start simply: Troll for kokanee, cast small spoons for rainbow or cutthroat trout, and use a bottom presentation during low light if burbot are the target.
Watch this closely: Steep forested slopes put deep water close to shore.
