996-acre lake near Ekshärad. The lake tops out around 23 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. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
På kartan täcker Gröcken 403 hektar innanför 19.8 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 7 öar. Strandlinjen är kraftigt flikig (index 2.8) — vikar och uddar överallt, vilket mångdubblar den fiskbara kanten. Cirka 51% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 4.5 km, som bredast 2.3 km. Vattnet hör till Hagfors kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Bredvisten, 4.8 km åt nordväst.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Gröcken, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 23 m (75 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för abborre, gädda, lake med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 2 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 2 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for burbot tight to the bank in 7.5 to 21 m. Expect a summer slide to 7 to 23 m, then a winter hold in 4.5 to 18 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 20 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. A heavy jig + cut bait is the honest summer answer here.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 7 to 23 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (20 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 7 to 23 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: lake whitefish in 4.5 to 14 m. As the season builds they drop to 7 to 23 m, wintering in 7.5 to 21 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 20 m range, prime in summer. Time it for early morning. Summer baits: a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon gets it done.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (10 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 7 to 23 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (20 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Main-lake point (6 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (20 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: roach in 0.5 to 3 m. As the season builds they drop to 1 to 5.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 11 m. Top water on the chart: Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in the 2 m range, prime in spring. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a tiny spoon or a micro jig gets it done.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommar | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Come spring, look for vendace tight to the bank in 2.5 to 9 m. They move out to 7.5 to 20 m in summer and finish the year down in 4.5 to 15 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 20 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon is the honest summer answer here.

| Vår | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (10 m) | Micro silver spoon, Tiny white jig |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 20 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (20 m) | Micro jig fished vertically, Tiny flutter spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny silver spoon, Micro mormyshka |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | Break off the point (10 m) | Tiny ice spoon, Tungsten mormyshka |
