152,781-acre section. The shallow Greifswalder Bodden, a nationally known brackish pike fishery with perch and zander, plus spring herring and garfish and sea trout along the outer shore. The water tops out around 13 m. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.

Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Weed flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 10 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Weed flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Ryck mouth (2 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
