193-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 11 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Auf der Karte umfasst Dolgener See 78 Hektar hinter 7.4 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist stark gegliedert (Index 2.4) — Buchten und Landzungen überall, was die befischbare Kante vervielfacht. Etwa 51% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 2.9 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.6 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Hohensprenzer See, 4.8 km Richtung Südwesten.

Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 10 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (8 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Secondary point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Secondary point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts zander in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 4.5 to 11 m, wintering in 3.5 to 11 m. Fall zander concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 8 m. Warm-month bites cluster around the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait covers the summer program.
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 & dawn | Secondary point (2 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (8 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (8 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Start shallow in spring: burbot sit in 3.5 to 11 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 3.5 to 11 m covers summer, 2.5 to 11 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 10 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. Throw a heavy jig + cut bait until the fish tell you otherwise.
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 | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (10 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommer | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (10 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Winter | 2.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (10 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Come spring, look for bleak tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 0.5 to 4.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 10 m that scores prime in winter. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A tiny surface fly or a micro spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (8 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
When the water first warms, common bream slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 7.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 3.5 to 11 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 10 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Dolgener See specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Dolgener See is about 37 ft (11 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.
Dolgener See ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 11 Meter (37 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, burbot, bleak, common bream, common carp, european eel, roach, tench on Dolgener See. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Dolgener See is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
