170.6-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 3.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 69 Hektar mit 4.3 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.5) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.8 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.6 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Großer Wentowsee, 6.4 km Richtung Nordosten.

In spring, bleak run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 0.5 to 3.5 m, and winter fish settle into 1 to 3.5 m. Break off the point is the standout, a drop-off at roughly 2 m, rated prime for fall bleak. Time it for early morning and the evening. You won't need more than a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon most summer days.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 0.5 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (3 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Start shallow in spring: common bream sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 1 to 3.5 m covers summer, 1 to 3.5 m covers winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 3 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

| Winter | 1 to 3.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (3 m) |
Spring european eel on Geronsee hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1 to 3.5 m in summer, 1 to 3.5 m once it turns cold. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 3 m, prime for winter. Prime time lands in after dark and the evening.

When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 3.5 m, winter 1 to 3.5 m. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.

| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |

Spring northern pike on Geronsee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 1 to 3.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 1 to 3.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.

Spring puts roach in skinny water — 0.5 to 3 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 3.5 m, wintering in 1 to 3.5 m. Spring roach concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 1 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig covers the summer program.

Geronsee carries 6 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 3 m down.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Geronsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Geronsee is about 12 ft (4 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Geronsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 4 Meter (12 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target bleak, common bream, european eel, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, tench, white bream, zander on Geronsee.
Break off the point is the top-rated area: a drop-off in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for bleak in fall. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For bleak, the summer bite is best in early morning and the evening. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Geronsee is regulated by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
