128.5-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 12 m. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.

Spring european perch on Fauler See hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 5 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |

When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat.

Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.

Spring zander on Fauler See hold shallow, usually 1 to 4.5 m. They move out to 4.5 to 11 m in summer and finish the year down in 6 to 12 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 5 m that grades prime for fall. The feeding windows run the evening and early morning. The summer box starts with a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (11 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
When the water first warms, burbot slide up into 3.5 to 12 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 3.5 to 12 m, winter 3 to 12 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 11 m that scores prime in spring. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 3.5 to 12 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (11 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommer | 3.5 to 12 m | night & midday | Deep basin (11 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 12 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (11 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
