14,899-acre Höllviken Sweden coastal fishing map with an exact official national water-body boundary, EMODnet 2024 CDI-audited mixed survey/composite DTM contours, source-assessed fishing spots, official regional fish evidence, seasonal forage guidance, public-access review and current-rule links. Official SMHI SVAR 2022 named coastal water in Skåne and southern Baltic. This child is clipped to the exact source polygon and a trip-scale ownership window. Coverage classes and uncertainty limits are disclosed; this is a fishing-planning chart, not a navigation chart or catch forecast. The water tops out around 9 m. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Here is how the season plays out for each species, straight from the data behind the map.
Höllviken mäter 6 029 hektar bakom 58.6 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 11 öar. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 2.1) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Cirka 74% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 12.4 km, som bredast 9.2 km. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är S Öresunds kustvatten - North, 6.4 km åt norr.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Höllviken, Sverige: källgranskade kustdjupkurvor (88 % direktmätt) ner till 9 m (30 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för havsöring, sill och strömming, näbbgädda med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Occurrence evidence does not promise a catch or establish that retention is legal. Current seasons, closures, protected species, gear rules and local restrictions always control. The roster may combine exact-water monitoring with habitat-filtered official regional evidence; it does not imply that every species is equally abundant throughout the mapped section.

Come spring, look for sea trout tight to the bank in 1 to 6 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 9 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 9 m. Start at Rock reef. It's a rock pile holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A deep-running wobbler or a trolled spoon is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (1 m) | Slim coastal spoon, Shallow-running wobbler |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Deep-running wobbler, Trolled spoon |
| Höst | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (4.5 m) | Coastal wobbler, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 9 m | midday | Rock reef (4.5 m) | Slow coastal spoon, Suspending wobbler |
Come spring, look for atlantic herring tight to the bank in 1.5 to 7.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 9 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 9 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deepest basin: a deep basin around 8 m that scores prime in summer. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A herring feather rig or a small silver jig is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Rock reef (4.5 m) | Small herring feather rig, Micro jig rig |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (8 m) | Herring feather rig, Small silver jig |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Deepest basin (8 m) | Small feather rig, Compact silver spoon |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m | midday | Deepest basin (8 m) | Small silver jig, Sparse feather rig |
Come spring, look for garfish tight to the bank in 0.5 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 0.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 2.5 to 9 m. Start at Shoreline point. It's a point holding about 4.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening. A slim casting spoon or a surface-skipping fly is the honest summer answer here.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 4.5 m | dawn & midday | Shoreline point (4.5 m) | Slim silver spoon, Small inline spinner |
| Sommar | 0.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (4.5 m) | Slim casting spoon, Surface-skipping fly |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Weighted slim spoon, Small silver jig |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m | midday | Deepest basin (8 m) |
Start shallow in spring: european flounder sit in 1.5 to 7.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 1.5 to 9 m; cold water stacks them in 2.5 to 9 m. Top water on the chart: Feeding flat, a feeding flat in the 4.5 m range, prime in spring. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. Throw a bottom jig with spinner blade until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1.5 to 7.5 m | dusk | Feeding flat (4.5 m) | Small bucktail dragged on bottom |
| Sommar | 1.5 to 9 m | dawn & dusk | Feeding flat (4.5 m) | Bottom jig with spinner blade |
| Höst | 2 to 9 m | dusk | Sharp break (4.5 m) | Compact bottom jig |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m | midday | Deepest basin (8 m) | Small bottom jig |
When the water first warms, european perch slide up into 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 2.5 to 9 m one. Start at Weed flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning. Keep a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |

| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | midday | Deepest basin (8 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m | midday & dawn | Deepest basin (8 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring northern pike on Höllviken hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Weed flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Weed flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |

| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Weed flat (1 m) | Large jigging spoon |

Access data: Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management - Bathing Locations and Waters. Confirm conditions and fees locally before you launch.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Sweden waters are set by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official current Swedish fishing-rules service) — and special regulations can apply to Höllviken specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish. Check Svenska Fiskeregler and the Swedish Agency for Marine and Water Management immediately before every coastal trip. Area-specific closures, protected spawning areas, minimum and maximum sizes, gear restrictions and species prohibitions can change; recreational fishing for Baltic cod is prohibited during 2026. A mapped depth contour, fishing-spot marker or bathing-site access lead never establishes permission to fish, retain catch, cross private land, park, launch or navigate safely.

Höllviken is about 30 ft (9 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from EMODnet, with national hydrographic source-reference audit bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Höllviken är som djupast cirka 9 meter (30 fot). Djupen kommer från verkliga lodningar.
Official coastal monitoring from Sweden national fisheries and coastal monitoring agencies informs the sea trout, atlantic herring, garfish, european flounder, european perch, northern pike, zander, european whitefish roster for Höllviken. The mixed roster combines exact-water records where available with habitat-filtered regional evidence; not every species is documented at this exact water, and it is not a promise of equal abundance or a catch on a particular trip.
Rock reef is the top-rated area: a rock pile in about 4 ft of water that rates prime for sea trout in spring. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For sea trout, 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.
Fishing on Höllviken is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official current Swedish fishing-rules service). Check the official Sweden regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
