1,809-acre lake near Ljusdal. The lake tops out around 24 m. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Dåasen mäter 672 hektar bakom 25.3 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 10 öar. Ett strandindex på 2.8 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 50% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 4.7 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 2.7 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Ljusdal kommun. Lossjön ligger 3.2 km åt sydväst — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Dåasen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 24 m (78 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda, lake med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 8.5 m before dropping to 3.5 to 10 m for winter. Spring european perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 2 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
| 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 | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (11 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (11 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 6 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: burbot in 7.5 to 21 m. As the season builds they drop to 7 to 24 m, wintering in 4.5 to 18 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 20 m range, prime in spring. Time it for after dark and midday. Summer baits: a heavy jig + cut bait gets it done.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 7 to 24 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (20 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 7 to 24 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Come spring, look for lake whitefish tight to the bank in 4.5 to 14 m. Expect a summer slide to 7 to 24 m, then a winter hold in 7.5 to 21 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 20 m of water and rates prime come summer. Prime time lands in early morning. A blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon is the honest summer answer here.

| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (20 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Come spring, look for roach tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 5.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 11 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig is the honest summer answer here.

| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (11 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (11 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
In spring, vendace run shallow here, mostly 2.5 to 9 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 7.5 to 20 m, and winter fish settle into 4.5 to 15 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 20 m, rated prime for summer vendace. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon most summer days.
