Fishing Fyresvatnet: what the data says
12,280-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 1237 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Traced from the shoreline, Fyresvatnet runs 12,252 acres with 42.3 miles of edge. A development index of 2.7 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. About 0% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft — that's the weed-and-bait zone.

Brown Trout fishing at Fyresvatnet
Spring brown trout on Fyresvatnet hold shallow, usually 3 to 25 ft. By summer they slide out to 25 to 60 ft, and by winter most fish are in 5 to 35 ft. The chart's best answer is Secondary point — point, 25 ft, prime for spring. Prime time lands in after dark and early morning. The summer box starts with a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night).

|---|---|---|---|---|

Back-bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 34 ft, rated good for winter european perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
