152-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 7 m. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Fetingen mäter 62 hektar bakom 3.5 km strandlinje. Med index 1.3 är formen nära cirkelrund: läs botten, inte strandlinjen. Ungefär 94% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 1.4 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 0.6 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Ljusdal kommun. Tensjön ligger 1.6 km åt väster — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.

Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 6 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. The spot to know is Back-bay flat, a weed flat in about 0.5 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 7 m, and winter fish settle into 2 to 7 m. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 6.5 m of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) 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.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
When the water first warms, brown trout slide up into 1 to 7 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 2 to 7 m, winter 1 to 7 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 6.5 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and early morning. Keep a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) rigged through the warm months.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring lake whitefish on Fetingen hold shallow, usually 2 to 7 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 2 to 7 m in summer, 2 to 7 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 6.5 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Break off the point (1 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 2 to 7 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 2 to 7 m. Summer keeps them at 2 to 7 m, and they winter in 2 to 7 m. Spring burbot concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 6.5 m. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Fetingen is about 23 ft (7 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Fetingen. 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.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 2 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For northern pike, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Fetingen is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
