Fishing Gammelvallstjärnen: what the data says
23-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 54 ft. The chart is a model: real shoreline, published maximum depth, interpolated in between. A planning tool, never a navigation product. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The drawn water covers 23 acres wrapped in 0.7 miles of bank. A shoreline index of 1.1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. About 17% of the surface sits shallower than 15 ft on the modeled chart — that's the weed-and-bait zone.
