633-acre lake near Surahammar. The lake tops out around 3 m. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Vattnet ritar ut 244 hektar med 6.8 km strand. Bassängen är enkel (strandindex 1.2) — nästan en skål, så djupkurvorna betyder mer än stranden. Inget här går djupare än ~5 m: en enda stor grundzon med föda och skydd. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 2.1 km, som bredast 1.9 km. Vattnet hör till Surahammar kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Gnien, 4.8 km åt nordost.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Glåpen, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 3 m (10 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda och gös. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3 m. Through summer count on 1 to 3 m; the winter hold is 1 to 3 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 1 m that scores prime in spring. 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 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 1 to 3 m game here, winter a 1 to 3 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 1 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.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |

| Vinter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 3 m. Through summer count on 1 to 3 m; the winter hold is 1 to 3 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 1.5 m that scores prime in fall. Best bite is the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (2.5 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |

| Vinter | 1 to 3 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (2.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Summer keeps them at 0.5 to 3 m, and they winter in 1 to 3 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 1 m, rated prime for spring 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.

Spring ruffe on Glåpen hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1 to 3 m in summer, 1 to 3 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 2.5 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a micro jig.
