182-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 11 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 73 Hektar mit 6.4 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 2.1) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 79% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 2.3 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.6 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Kleiner Krienertsee, 1.6 km Richtung Westen.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4.5 m. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 7.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 11 m. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 11 m range, prime in fall. Time it for early morning and the evening.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) | |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) |
Early season european eel use the shallows, holding in 1.5 to 6 m. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 11 m. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 11 m that grades prime for winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and the evening.

| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (2 m) | |
| Sommer | 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | |
| Herbst | 3 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 12 m | night | Deep basin (11 m) | |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 11 m that scores prime in fall. Best bite is early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (11 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 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. The chart's best answer is Shallow bay flat — weed flat, 0.5 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 5.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 11 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring tench on Großer Krinertsee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 3.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 9 m. 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 1 to 3.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2 m) | |
| Winter | 3.5 to 9 m | midday | Deep basin (11 m) |

Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 35 ft of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every 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.
