94-acre lake in Norway. 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. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
På kartet dekker Grefslisjøen 38 hektar innenfor 4.2 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen er moderat strukturert (indeks 1.9). Hele vannet er grunnere enn ~5 m — vegetasjon og byttefisk fra strand til strand. Fra ende til ende måler vannet omtrent 1.4 km, på det bredeste 0.5 km. Vannet ligger i Trøgstad kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Hemnessjøen, 6.4 km mot nordøst.

When the water first warms, brown trout slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 1 to 2.5 m, winter 0.5 to 2.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Break off the point: a drop-off around 2.5 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and early morning. Keep a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) rigged through the warm months.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.

| Vinter | 0.5 to 2.5 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (2.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 0.5 to 2.5 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 1 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 0.5 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: northern pike in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 2.5 m before dropping to 1 to 2.5 m for winter. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 0.5 m of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage gets it done.

Spring lake whitefish on Grefslisjøen hold shallow, usually 1 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 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. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

Early season common bream use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Even in summer they hold at 1 to 2.5 m; winter keeps them in 1 to 2.5 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 2.5 m that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening.

Spring roach on Grefslisjøen hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 0.5 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 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a tiny spoon or a micro jig.

Grefslisjøen 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.
Grefslisjøen er på det dypeste omtrent 3 meter (9 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, common bream, roach, bleak on Grefslisjøen. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 2 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
