659,344-acre section. The coast from Lübeck Bay past Wismar to Kühlungsborn: sea trout over reefs and eelgrass, herring and garfish in season, and flatfish on the broad sand-bottom edges. The water tops out around 28 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 the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Das Gewässer zeichnet 268 365 Hektar mit 446.6 km Ufer, aufgebrochen durch 2 Inseln. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.4) — Buchten und Landzungen überall, was die befischbare Kante vervielfacht. Etwa 9% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 98 km, an der breitesten Stelle 57.3 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Riedensee, 11.3 km Richtung Osten.

When the water first warms, sea trout slide up into 1 to 6 m. Summer is a 4.5 to 15 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 9 m one. Start at Rock reef. It's a rock pile holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (1 m) | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 15 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (6 m) | Deep-running wobbler, Trolled spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Warnow mouth (7 m) | Coastal wobbler, Casting spoon |
| Winter | 1.5 to 9 m | midday | Rock reef (1.5 m) | Slow coastal spoon, Suspending wobbler |
When the water first warms, atlantic herring slide up into 1.5 to 7.5 m. By summer they slide out to 4.5 to 15 m, and by winter most fish are in 6 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Warnow mouth: an inflow / creek mouth around 7 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a herring feather rig or a small silver jig rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Warnow mouth (7 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 15 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (6 m) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Herbst | 3 to 12 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (6 m) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 18 m | midday | Sharp break (6 m) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european flounder in 1.5 to 7.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2 to 11 m, wintering in 4.5 to 15 m. Top water on the chart: Feeding flat, a feeding flat in the 5 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a bottom jig with spinner blade gets it done.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dusk | Feeding flat (5 m) | Small bucktail dragged on bottom |
| Sommer | 2 to 11 m | dawn & dusk | Feeding flat (9 m) | Bottom jig with spinner blade |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 12 m | dusk | Sharp break (6 m) | Compact bottom jig |
| Winter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | Sharp break (6 m) | Small bottom jig |
When the water first warms, garfish slide up into 0.5 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 0.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 6 to 18 m one. Start at Shoreline point. It's a point holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a slim casting spoon or a surface-skipping fly rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & midday | Shoreline point (2.5 m) | Slim silver spoon, Small inline spinner |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (2.5 m) | Slim casting spoon, Surface-skipping fly |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (6 m) | Weighted slim spoon, Small silver jig |
| Winter | 6 to 18 m | midday | Sharp break (6 m) |
