23,932-acre Flensburg Fjord. German Outer Shore Germany saltwater fishing map with official BSH 50 m seabed bathymetry, source-qualified fishing spots, official German fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public shore-use context and current-rule links. The German outer Flensburg Fjord shore toward the western Baltic, with reefs, points and deeper contour transitions. The water tops out around 31 m. The depth chart comes from Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie (BSH) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 9 687 Hektar mit 66.6 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.9) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 17% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 21.9 km, an der breitesten Stelle 10.3 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Flensburg Fjord - Danish Inner Shore, 16.1 km Richtung Nordwesten.

Regional occurrence supports search targets, not equal abundance, a child-specific catch rate, retention permission or a promised catch. Baltic cod is intentionally excluded because targeted recreational fishing is prohibited in 2026; live state and federal rules always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

Come spring, look for sea trout tight to the bank in 1 to 6 m. They move out to 4.5 to 15 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 9 m. If you only fish one area, make it Rock reef: a rock pile around 0.5 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (0.5 m) | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 15 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (16 m) | Deep-running wobbler, Trolled spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (1 m) | Coastal wobbler, Casting spoon |
| Winter | 1.5 to 9 m | midday | Rock reef (0.5 m) | Slow coastal spoon, Suspending wobbler |
Come spring, look for atlantic herring tight to the bank in 1.5 to 7.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 4.5 to 15 m, then a winter hold in 6 to 18 m. Start at Official-grid current seam. It's a current seam holding about 12 m of water and rates good come fall. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A herring feather rig or a small silver jig is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Official-grid shoal (6 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Sommer | 4.5 to 15 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (16 m) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Herbst | 3 to 12 m | dawn & dusk | Official-grid current seam (12 m) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Winter | 6 to 18 m | midday | Sharp break (16 m) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
Start shallow in spring: european flounder sit in 1.5 to 7.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2 to 11 m, and winter fish settle into 4.5 to 15 m. The spot to know is Feeding flat, a feeding flat in about 11 m of water that rates prime for european flounder in summer. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a bottom jig with spinner blade until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dusk | Official-grid shoal (6 m) | Small bucktail dragged on bottom |
| Sommer | 2 to 11 m | dawn & dusk | Feeding flat (11 m) | Bottom jig with spinner blade |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 12 m | dusk | Feeding flat (11 m) | Compact bottom jig |
| Winter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | Sharp break (16 m) | Small bottom jig |
Come spring, look for garfish tight to the bank in 0.5 to 4.5 m. They move out to 0.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 6 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shoreline point: a point around 1 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A slim casting spoon or a surface-skipping fly is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & midday | Shoreline point (1 m) | Slim silver spoon, Small inline spinner |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (1 m) | Slim casting spoon, Surface-skipping fly |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | open water | Weighted slim spoon, Small silver jig |
| Winter | 6 to 18 m | midday | Official-grid current seam (12 m) |
