308.4-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 12 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
Das Gewässer zeichnet 124 Hektar mit 7.9 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 2) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 65% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 2.7 km, an der breitesten Stelle 1 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Kleiner Schwielochsee, 3.2 km Richtung Norden.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: bleak in 0.5 to 3 m. As the season builds they drop to 0.5 to 4.5 m, wintering in 3 to 10 m. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 2 m range, prime in fall. Time it for early morning and the evening. Summer baits: a tiny surface fly or a micro spoon gets it done.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | Micro jig under a float, Tiny dry fly |
| Sommer | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (2 m) | Tiny surface fly, Micro spoon |
| Herbst | 1 to 6.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2 m) | Micro jig, Tiny silver spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (12 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
Spring puts common bream in skinny water — 1 to 4.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 7.5 m, wintering in 3.5 to 12 m. Winter common bream concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 12 m. Warm-month bites cluster around 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 (1.5 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 (12 m) | |
| Winter | 3.5 to 12 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (12 m) |
Come spring, look for european eel tight to the bank in 1.5 to 6 m. Expect a summer slide to 2 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 12 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 12 m of water and rates prime come winter. Prime time lands 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) | |

Spring european perch on Großer Mochowsee hold shallow, usually 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. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 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 (12 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (12 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for ide tight to the bank in 0.5 to 3.5 m. They move out to 1 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 4.5 to 12 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 12 m that scores prime in winter. Best bite is early morning and the evening.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3.5 m | dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | see map |
| Sommer | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (2 m) | see map |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (2 m) | see map |
| Winter | 4.5 to 12 m | midday | Deep basin (12 m) | see map |
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 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. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (1.5 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 (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |

Break off the point is the top-rated area: a drop-off in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for bleak in fall. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
For bleak, 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.
