10,085-acre Arkösunds kustvatten. Central Sweden coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 CDI-audited mixed survey/composite DTM contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official SMHI SVAR 2022 named coastal water in Stockholm, Gotland and central Baltic. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 84 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Vattnet ritar ut 4 082 hektar med 31.2 km strand. Med index 1.4 är formen nära cirkelrund: läs botten, inte strandlinjen. Ungefär 1% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 11.6 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 4.3 km på bredden. Arkösunds kustvatten - Central West ligger 6.4 km åt väster — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Arkösunds kustvatten — Central, Sverige: djupkurvor från riktiga djupmätningar ner till 84 m (276 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda, gös med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 10 m for winter. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |

| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.

In spring, zander run shallow here, mostly 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 4.5 to 11 m before dropping to 6 to 12 m for winter. Fish it in the evening and early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait most summer days.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |

| Vinter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Slow blade bait |
Start shallow in spring: sea trout sit in 1 to 6 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 4.5 to 15 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 9 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Vår | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |

Spring puts atlantic herring in skinny water — 1.5 to 7.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 4.5 to 15 m; cold water stacks them in 6 to 18 m. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A herring feather rig or a small silver jig covers the summer program.

When the water first warms, european whitefish slide up into 3 to 12 m. Summer is an 8.5 to 24 m game here, winter a 5.5 to 18 m one. Start at Offshore hump. It's an offshore hump holding about 23 m of water and rates good come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a small vertical spoon or a micro jig rigged through the warm months.

No Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management active bathing location matched within 400 metres of this exact mapped shoreline. This is an access-evidence gap, not a claim that public access does not exist. Verify land ownership, local signs, parking, safety and fishing permission before entry.
Private land and private launches need the owner's permission — please ask first.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Sweden waters are set by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official current Swedish fishing-rules service) — and special regulations can apply to Arkösunds kustvatten - Central specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Svenska Fiskeregler and the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management immediately before every coastal trip. Area-specific closures, protected spawning areas, minimum and maximum sizes, gear restrictions and species prohibitions can change; recreational fishing for Baltic cod is prohibited during 2026. A mapped depth contour, fishing-spot marker or bathing-site access lead never establishes permission to fish, retain catch, cross private land, park, launch or navigate safely.

Arkösunds kustvatten - Central is about 276 ft (84 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Official coastal monitoring from Sweden national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the european perch, northern pike, zander, sea trout, atlantic herring, european whitefish, european flounder, european smelt roster for Arkösunds kustvatten - Central. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Offshore hump is the top-rated area: an offshore hump in about 76 ft of water that rates good for european whitefish in summer. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Arkösunds kustvatten - Central is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official current Swedish fishing-rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
