Fishing Hamptjärnen: what the data says
12-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 21 ft. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Hamptjärnen maps at 12 acres behind 0.6 miles of shoreline. The basin is a simple one (shoreline index 1.3) — close to a bowl, so the structure on the chart matters more than the bank. 42% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water.
