Fishing Högsjön: what the data says
19-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 34 ft. The contours are modeled from the water's real shoreline and maximum depth. Treat them as a rough guide, and never use them for navigation. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Traced from the shoreline, Högsjön runs 19 acres with 0.7 miles of edge. A shoreline index of 1.1 says round and simple: fish relate to depth changes here, not shoreline features. 51% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft), per the model — cover, weeds and forage water.

A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
