Fishing Byhedsjön: what the data says
55-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 18 ft. Depth here is modeled from the true shoreline and max depth rather than surveyed; use it to plan, not to navigate. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Traced from the shoreline, Byhedsjön runs 55 acres with 1.5 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.4 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 84% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
