Fishing Granavatnet: what the data says
29-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 77 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Traced from the shoreline, Granavatnet runs 29 acres with 1 miles of edge. Nearly circular (index 1.3), so the story is the bottom, not the bank. 18% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water.
