Fishing Dausjøen: what the data says
37-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 44 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
On the chart, Dausjøen draws 37 acres inside 1.6 miles of shoreline. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 1.9) — enough points and pockets to pattern. About 35% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
