103.5-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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Auf der Karte umfasst Briesener See 42 Hektar hinter 3.1 km Uferlinie. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.3) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.3 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Dollgensee, 4.8 km Richtung Norden.

Spring common bream on Briesener 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. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 3.5 m that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run 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 (0.5 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) |
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. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 3.5 m, rated prime for winter european eel. Time it for after dark and the evening.

| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 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. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 3.5 m of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Plan around early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (3.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (3.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| 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 |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 3.5 m, and winter fish settle into 1 to 3.5 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 0.5 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 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 |
| Herbst | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season roach use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 3 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 3.5 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 3.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a tiny spoon or a micro jig and you're in the game.

When the water first warms, rudd slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 0.5 to 3.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 1 to 3.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 0.5 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Keep a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon rigged through the warm months.

Briesener 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.
Briesener See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 4 Meter (12 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target common bream, european eel, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, ruffe, tench, white bream on Briesener See.
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.
