34-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 2 m. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What follows comes from the same scoring engine that paints the spots above.
På kartan täcker Holmsjön 14 hektar innanför 1.6 km strandlinje. Med index 1.2 är formen nära cirkelrund: läs botten, inte strandlinjen. Hela sjön är grundare än ~5 m — vegetation och betesfisk från strand till strand. Räkna med 0.6 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 0.3 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Svenljunga kommun. Mossasjön ligger 0 km åt nordväst — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Holmsjön, Sverige: djupkurvor från riktiga djupmätningar ner till 2 m (7 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre och öring. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 0.5 to 2 m, and winter fish hold in 0.5 to 2 m. Shallow bay flat is the standout, a weed flat at roughly 0.5 m, rated prime for spring northern pike. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 0.5 to 2 m is the zone. Summer fish stay in 0.5 to 2 m, and winter fish hold in 0.5 to 2 m. Spring european perch concentrate at Shallow bay flat, a prime-rated weed flat around 0.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (2 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 2 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (2 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season brown trout use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2 m. Even in summer they hold at 0.5 to 2 m; winter keeps them in 0.5 to 2 m. Put Shoreline break first on the milk run — a drop-off near 1 m that grades prime for summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and early morning. Tie on a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) and you're in the game.

Holmsjön carries 4 mapped structure features, topping out (or rather bottoming out) at Deep basin, about 2 m down.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Sweden waters are set by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish rules service) — and special regulations can apply to Holmsjön specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Holmsjön is about 7 ft (2 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Holmsjön är som djupast cirka 2 meter (7 fot). Djupen kommer från verkliga lodningar.
Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout on Holmsjön. 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 2 ft of water that rates prime for northern pike in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
For northern pike, 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 Holmsjön is regulated by the Svenska Fiskeregler (official Swedish 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.
