623-acre lake near Ankarsrum. The lake tops out around 98 m. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
På kartan täcker Fälgaren 256 hektar innanför 13.5 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 2 öar. Ett strandindex på 2.4 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 17% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 4 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 1.4 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Västervik kommun. Ängnässjön ligger 1.6 km åt sydost — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Fälgaren, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 98 m (322 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda och lake. 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 feeding 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 | Deep basin (84 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (84 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. Creek inflow is the standout, an inflow / creek mouth at roughly 2.5 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 | Creek inflow (2.5 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 15 to 37 m, wintering in 4.5 to 18 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 84 m range, good in spring. Time it for after dark and midday. Summer baits: a heavy jig + cut bait gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (84 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (84 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (84 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (84 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
