114.4-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 30 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
Auf der Karte umfasst Großer Kronsee 46 Hektar hinter 3.9 km Uferlinie. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 1.6) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 28% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 1.6 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Wurlsee, 3.2 km Richtung Südwesten.

Come spring, look for common bream tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 7.5 m, then a winter hold in 5.5 to 14 m. Start at Back-bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 2.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | open water | |
| Herbst | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | open water | |
| Winter | 5.5 to 14 m | midday | open water |
Start shallow in spring: european eel sit in 1.5 to 6 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 2 to 8.5 m; cold water stacks them in 5.5 to 15 m. Fish it in after dark and the evening and you'll meet the bite.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1.5 to 6 m | dusk & night | open water | |
| Sommer | 2 to 8.5 m | night & dusk | open water | |
| Herbst | 3 to 12 m | night | open water | |
| Winter | 5.5 to 15 m | midday | open water |
In spring, european perch run shallow here, mostly 1 to 3.5 m. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 10 m. Back-bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 2.5 m, rated prime for spring european perch. Time it for early morning. You won't need more than a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) most summer days.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | open water | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, northern pike run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 2.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 2.5 to 6 m before dropping to 1.5 to 4.5 m for winter. Spring northern pike concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 0.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage most summer days.
| 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 | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for roach tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 5.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 11 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 0.5 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A tiny spoon or a micro jig is the honest summer answer here.
| 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 | Back-bay flat (2.5 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Secondary point (4.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | open water | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring rudd on Großer Kronsee hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 0.5 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. The summer box starts with a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Micro jig, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 3.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1.5 to 5.5 m | midday | open water | Micro jig |
| Winter | 3.5 to 9 m | midday | open water | Tiny mormyshka |
Großer Kronsee also holds white bream (2 to 6 m in summer). Pick any of them on the map above for rated spots and bait picks.
5 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 29 m, is the deepest of them.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Großer Kronsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Großer Kronsee is about 99 ft (30 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.
Großer Kronsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 30 Meter (99 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target common bream, european eel, european perch, northern pike, roach, rudd, white bream on Großer Kronsee.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 8 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each 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.
