279-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 10 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Vannet tegner ut 113 hektar med 10 km strand. Strandlinjen er sterkt oppfliket (indeks 2.6) — viker og nes overalt, som mangedobler den fiskbare kanten. Omtrent 63% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 2.1 km, på det bredeste 1 km. Vannet ligger i Oslo kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Strømsdammen, 1.6 km mot nordøst.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Bogstadvannet, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 10 m (34 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 1 to 7.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 3 to 10 m before dropping to 1.5 to 10 m for winter. Summer brown trout concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 10 m. Fish it in after dark and early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.

| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (1.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring european perch on Bogstadvannet hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 10 m that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 0.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 3 to 10 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 3 to 10 m covers summer, 3 to 10 m covers winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 10 m of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Vår | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Start shallow in spring: arctic char sit in 1 to 4.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 3 to 10 m, and winter fish settle into 2.5 to 10 m. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 10 m of water that rates prime for arctic char in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) until the fish tell you otherwise.

Come spring, look for european eel tight to the bank in 1.5 to 6 m. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3 to 10 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 10 m of water and rates prime come winter. Prime time lands in after dark and the evening.

Bogstadvannet is about 34 ft (10 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Bogstadvannet er på det dypeste omtrent 10 meter (34 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char, european eel, roach on Bogstadvannet. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 2 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and 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 Bogstadvannet is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
