Fishing Fälaren: what the data says
526-acre lake near Tierp. The lake tops out around 9 ft. Contours on this water are modeled from its actual shoreline and max depth. Good for finding likely water, never for navigation. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
The drawn water covers 500 acres wrapped in 6.9 miles of bank — 2 islands included. That shoreline is heavily fingered (development index 2.2) — bays, points and pockets everywhere, which multiplies the fishable edge. Every acre of it sits shallower than ~15 ft: one big littoral zone, cover and forage throughout.
