46.2-acre lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. The lake tops out around 19 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 19 Hektar mit 1.8 km Ufer. Das Becken ist einfach (Uferindex 1.1) — fast eine Schüssel, die Tiefenlinien zählen mehr als das Ufer. Etwa 32% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 0.6 km, an der breitesten Stelle 0.5 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Hofsee, 3.2 km Richtung Westen.

Spring european perch on Hinbergsee 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 2 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 (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
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 2 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 (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Start shallow in spring: roach sit in 0.5 to 3 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 5.5 m, and winter fish settle into 3.5 to 11 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 2 m of water that rates prime for roach in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. Throw a tiny spoon or a micro jig until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 3 m | midday & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Micro jig under a float |
| Sommer | 1 to 5.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tiny spoon, Micro jig |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 8.5 m | midday | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Tiny jig, Small silver spoon |
| Winter | 3.5 to 11 m | midday | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Tungsten mormyshka |
When the water first warms, vendace slide up into 2.5 to 9 m. Summer is a 6 to 19 m game here, winter a 4.5 to 15 m one. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 18 m of water and rates prime come summer. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon rigged through the warm months.
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 | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Micro silver spoon, Tiny white jig |
| Sommer | 6 to 19 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 20 m | dawn & dusk | Deep basin (18 m) | Micro jig fished vertically, Tiny flutter spoon |
| Herbst | 2.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Tiny silver spoon, Micro mormyshka |
| Winter | 4.5 to 15 m | midday | Deep basin (18 m) | Tiny ice spoon, Tungsten mormyshka |
Come spring, look for wels catfish tight to the bank in 2 to 7.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 3 to 12 m, then a winter hold in 6 to 19 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 18 m of water and rates prime come winter. Prime time lands in after dark and the evening. A large soft swimbait or a vertical clonk rig where legal is the honest summer answer here.
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 | 2 to 7.5 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Large soft swimbait, Heavy vibration lure |
| Sommer | 3 to 12 m | night & dusk | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Large soft swimbait, Vertical clonk rig where legal |
| Herbst | 4.5 to 14 m | dusk | Break off the point (7.5 m) | Heavy jig + fish imitation |
| Winter | 6 to 19 m chart-limited; documented 6.5 to 20 m | midday | Deep basin (18 m) |
Structure-wise the chart holds 4 features, led in depth by Deep basin at roughly 18 m.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Hinbergsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern coastal fishing requires the applicable fishing documents and compliance with current coastal species, size, season and protected-area rules. Check the live LALLF guidance, local fishery rights, harbour and navigation restrictions, nature-reserve controls, shore access and posted signs before every trip; a DepthScout contour or access lead is never legal permission.

Hinbergsee is about 63 ft (19 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.
Hinbergsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 19 Meter (63 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, roach, vendace, wels catfish on Hinbergsee. This isn't a survey of the water — none is published for it — but an informed estimate from the species common to the region, narrowed by this water's depth, size and each species' range.
Shallow bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 6 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. The map above holds the full rated-spot list for every species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Hinbergsee is regulated by the LALLF Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
