2,236-acre lake near Alfta. The lake tops out around 61 m. What you see is a modeled chart: the shoreline is real, the max depth is published, and the contours between are estimated. Plan with it; don't navigate by it. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
På kartan täcker Galvsjön 904 hektar innanför 16.3 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.5) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Ungefär 19% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 5.6 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 2.7 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Ovanåker kommun. Lill-Rösten ligger 4.8 km åt väster — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Galvsjön, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 61 m (200 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda, gös med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
The spring pattern is a shallow one: european perch in 1 to 3.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 8.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 10 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a feeding flat in the 2 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | open water | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Start shallow in spring: northern pike sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Top water on the chart: Creek inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 2.5 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Creek inflow (2.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: zander in 1 to 4.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 4.5 to 11 m, wintering in 6 to 12 m. Top water on the chart: Creek inflow, an inflow / creek mouth in the 2.5 m range, prime in spring. Time it for the evening and early morning. Summer baits: a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Creek inflow (2.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommar | 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Höst | 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Main-lake point (15 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Vinter | 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | open water | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Spring puts burbot in skinny water — 7.5 to 21 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 15 to 37 m; cold water stacks them in 4.5 to 18 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 27 m, rated good for summer burbot. Plan around after dark and midday in the warm months. A heavy jig + cut bait covers the summer program.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | open water | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Break off the point (27 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (27 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | open water | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
Early season roach use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 3 m. Summer is a 1 to 5.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 11 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — feeding flat, 2 m, prime for summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a tiny spoon or a micro jig and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Creek inflow (2.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | open water | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: ruffe in 1 to 4.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 3 to 9 m before dropping to 4.5 to 12 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a feeding flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for ruffe in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a micro jig gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny bottom jig |
| Sommar | 3 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig |
| Höst | 3.5 to 11 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny jigging spoon |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 12 m | dusk | open water | Tungsten mormyshka |
