166.6-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 8 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Das Gewässer zeichnet 67 Hektar mit 5.8 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 2) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 68% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.9 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Kalksee Woltersdorf, 1.6 km Richtung Norden.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Flakensee, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 8 m (27 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Hecht und Zander. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des Landesamts für Umwelt Brandenburg). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8 m, and by winter most fish are in 2.5 to 8 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 7.5 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
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 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Flakensee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 6 m, and by winter most fish are in 1.5 to 4.5 m. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 0.5 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
When the water first warms, zander slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 2.5 to 8 m, and by winter most fish are in 2.5 to 8 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 5 m that scores prime in fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in the evening and early morning. Keep a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait rigged through the warm months.
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 (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 2.5 to 8 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (7.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Count 6 structure marks on this chart. The deepest, Deep basin, sits near 7.5 m.

Flakensee is about 27 ft (8 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.
Flakensee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 8 Meter (27 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander on Flakensee.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 24 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every 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.
