42,749-acre lake near Ljungby. The lake tops out around 36 m. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
På kartan täcker Bolmen 17 262 hektar innanför 410.4 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 130 öar. Strandlinjen är kraftigt flikig (index 8.8) — vikar och uddar överallt, vilket mångdubblar den fiskbara kanten. Cirka 53% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 35.9 km, som bredast 12.6 km. Vattnet hör till Ljungby kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Lillasjö, 6.4 km åt sydost.

Spring european perch on Bolmen hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3.5 to 10 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 2 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Offshore hump (6.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Offshore hump (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |

When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.

It's a deep basin holding about 30 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.

Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 4.5 to 14 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 12 to 27 m; cold water stacks them in 7.5 to 21 m. Top water on the chart: Rock reef, a rock pile in the 3.5 m range, prime in fall. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Offshore hump (6.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |

Creek inflow is the standout, an inflow / creek mouth at roughly 2.5 m, rated prime for spring brown trout. Time it for after dark and early morning. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.
