41-acre river near Amersfoort. The river tops out around 6 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
The chart traces 0 miles of shoreline here, broken up by 13 islands. With a NaN development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. All of it is shallow-zone water — under ~15 ft across the entire basin, so the food chain has the run of the place. If the bite dies, Woudenbergse Grift is 3 mi to the southeast.
