131.9-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 8 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 Bückwitzser See 53 Hektar hinter 4.3 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.7) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 98% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.9 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Klempowsee, 4.8 km Richtung Nordwesten.

Spring common bream on Bückwitzser See hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 7.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 8 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 7.5 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 4.5 m | dusk | Back-bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (7.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) |
Spring puts common carp in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 4.5 m; cold water stacks them in 2.5 to 8 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 m, rated prime for spring common carp. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |

| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 m) | |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) |
In spring, european eel run shallow here, mostly 1.5 to 6 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 8 m, and winter fish settle into 2.5 to 8 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 7.5 m, rated prime for winter european eel. Time it for after dark and the evening.

| Frühling | 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (0.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 2 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (7.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 2 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 12 m | night | Deep basin (7.5 m) | |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8 m before dropping to 2.5 to 8 m for winter. The spot to know is Back-bay flat, a weed flat in about 1 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. 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 | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |

Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 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 | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Secondary point (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 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 5.5 m, then a winter hold in 2.5 to 8 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.

Bückwitzser See is about 27 ft (8 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.

Anglers target common bream, common carp, european eel, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, white bream on Bückwitzser See.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 24 ft of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
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.
