Why Aarhus Bay is split up
The compact urban harbor-side child and broad outer bay have sharply different source mixes, so the measured outer bay publishes without waiving the inner bay's fixed coverage gate.
95,929-acre Aarhus Bay — Outer Denmark saltwater fishing map with official Danish Geodata Agency 50 m bathymetry, measured-only fishing spots, DTU-supported fish targets, seasonal forage guidance and public shore-access context. Outer Aarhus Bay toward Mols and Samsø, with measured banks, reefs and Kattegat-facing contour breaks.

These named sections are part of Aarhus Bay but did not pass the release gate, so they have no public map yet.
Inner — The official Denmark Depth Model is 49.34% directly source-backed in this water-only child, below the fixed 60% release floor; provider interpolation remains identified and no coverage waiver is applied.
Choose with the evidence visible
How to compare Aarhus Bay sections
The released set contains 1 survey-backed section and 0 modeled sections. Their published maximum depths run from 208 to 208 ft, with a median of 208 ft. Those numbers make scale differences visible, but they do not make sections interchangeable: contour provenance, access, species evidence and local structure remain specific to each child map.
Start with the section closest to the water you actually plan to fish. Then compare its depth-data label and species roster with an adjacent section before treating a pattern as system-wide. A survey-backed child is the stronger choice for precise breakline planning; a modeled child is broader reconnaissance and should be checked against sonar and conditions on the water. Return to this overview whenever you cross into another mapped reach, pool or coastal section.
Same child-page contract
What every section keeps separate
Depth provenance: each child discloses whether its contours are survey-backed or modeled; a family card never upgrades that label.
Fishing spots: structure and seasonal recommendations are calculated inside the child boundary so distant reaches are not mixed together.
Fish species: each page keeps its own supported roster rather than inheriting every species found anywhere in the parent system.
Local context: hatch guidance, access, hazards, catches and nearby-water links continue to resolve for the individual child where data is available.
Planning questions
Frequently asked questions
Why is Aarhus Bay divided into separate fishing maps?
The compact urban harbor-side child and broad outer bay have sharply different source mixes, so the measured outer bay publishes without waiving the inner bay's fixed coverage gate.
Are these depth maps survey-backed?
1 released maps use surveyed or official agency bathymetry. Each child keeps its own provider, product, datum and not-for-navigation disclosure.
Do fish and access records apply everywhere?
No. Species, forage, access and fishing spots remain scoped to each child map and retain their evidence labels.
