40-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 16 m. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Every species below gets its seasonal read from the same numbers driving the chart.
Vattnet ritar ut 16 hektar med 1.8 km strand. Bassängen är enkel (strandindex 1.3) — nästan en skål, så djupkurvorna betyder mer än stranden. Cirka 20% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 0.8 km, som bredast 0.3 km. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är N Höga kustens kustvatten - Sector 06, 3.2 km åt sydost.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Gammhamnen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 16 m (52 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — feeding flat, 2 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 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 |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shoreline break: a drop-off around 7 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| 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 | Shoreline break (7 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Shoreline break (7 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Shoreline break (7 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 1 to 7.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 5 to 16 m before dropping to 1.5 to 11 m for winter. The spot to know is Shoreline break, a drop-off in about 7 m of water that rates prime for brown trout in summer. Plan around after dark and early morning in the warm months. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline break (7 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 5 to 16 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Shoreline break (7 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Shoreline break (7 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Shoreline break (7 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 4.5 to 14 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 5 to 16 m, and winter fish settle into 5 to 16 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 13 m, rated prime for summer lake whitefish. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.

Spring burbot on Gammhamnen hold shallow, usually 5 to 16 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 5 to 16 m in summer, 4 to 16 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 13 m, prime for spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.

In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 5.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 11 m. Shoreline break is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 7 m, rated prime for fall roach. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.

| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
