104-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 2.5 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 42 Hektar mit 3.2 km Ufer. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.4) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Das gesamte Gewässer ist flacher als ~5 m — Kraut und Beutefische von Ufer zu Ufer. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.3 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Plauer See, 4.8 km Richtung Südwesten.

Spring puts common bream in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 2.5 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 2.5 m. Fall common bream concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 2 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | |
| Herbst | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) | |
| Winter | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) |
Spring european perch on Gördensee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 1 to 2.5 m in summer, 1 to 2.5 m once it turns cold. 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. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).

When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 1 to 2.5 m game here, winter a 1 to 2.5 m one. 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 and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

| Winter | 1 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: roach sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 0.5 to 2.5 m covers summer, 1 to 2.5 m covers winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 1 m of water that rates prime for roach in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a tiny spoon or a micro jig until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Micro jig under a float |

Spring puts white bream in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 1 to 2.5 m, and winter fish hold in 1 to 2.5 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 2 m, rated prime for fall white bream. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

Come spring, look for european eel tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Through summer count on 0.5 to 2.5 m; the winter hold is 1 to 2.5 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come winter. Prime time lands in after dark and the evening.

Gördensee is about 9 ft (3 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.
Gördensee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 3 Meter (9 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target common bream, european perch, northern pike, roach, white bream, european eel, rudd, ruffe, zander, bleak, common carp, tench, asp on Gördensee. This isn't a survey of the lake — none is on record for it — but an informed estimate from the species listed for the nearest surveyed lakes in the region, filtered to this lake's depth and habitat.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 7 ft of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For common bream, 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 Gördensee 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.
