217.7-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 3.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
Auf der Karte umfasst Borker See 88 Hektar hinter 7.2 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.2) — Buchten und Landzungen überall, was die befischbare Kante vervielfacht. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 2.6 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Salzsee, 1.6 km Richtung Süden.

Spring common bream on Borker See hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1 to 3.5 m in summer, 1 to 3.5 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 3.5 m, prime for fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (3.5 m) | |
| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (3.5 m) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. The depth story barely changes: 1 to 3.5 m through summer, 1 to 3.5 m in winter. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.

| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (3.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season roach use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 3 m. Summer is a 1 to 3.5 m game here, winter a 1 to 3.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a tiny spoon or a micro jig and you're in the game.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |

| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (3.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
In spring, european eel run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Summer keeps them at 1 to 3.5 m, and they winter in 1 to 3.5 m. Winter european eel concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 3.5 m. Fish it in after dark and the evening and you'll meet the bite.

| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | |

| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (3.5 m) |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 3.5 m; cold water stacks them in 1 to 3.5 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 1 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |

When the water first warms, rudd slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 0.5 to 3.5 m game here, winter a 1 to 3.5 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon rigged through the warm months.

Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Borker See specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Borker See is about 12 ft (4 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.
Borker See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 4 Meter (12 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target common bream, european perch, roach, european eel, northern pike, rudd, ruffe, white bream, tench, common carp, zander on Borker See. This isn't a survey of the lake — none is on record for it — but an informed estimate from the species listed for the nearest surveyed lakes in the region, filtered to this lake's depth and habitat.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 11 ft of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For common bream, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Borker See is regulated by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
