2,990-acre lake near Sälen. The lake tops out around 9 m. These contours are modeled — built from the real shoreline and the water's maximum depth — so read them as a guide, never as navigation. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
På kartan täcker Horrmunden 1 105 hektar innanför 56.8 km strandlinje, uppbruten av 18 öar. Ett strandindex på 4.8 betyder en labyrint av vikar och uddar: många fler kastmål än en rund sjö i samma storlek. Ungefär 79% av ytan är grundare än ~5 m — där finns vegetationen och betesfisken. Räkna med 9.2 km vatten från ena änden till den andra och 4.5 km på bredden. Sjön ligger i Malung-Sälen kommun. Kullhån ligger 3.2 km åt öster — närmaste grannvatten på kartan.

Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 2.5 to 8.5 m, and winter fish settle into 2.5 to 9 m. The spot to know is Shallow bay flat, a weed flat in about 1 m of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (8 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 2.5 to 9 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (8 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, burbot run shallow here, mostly 2.5 to 9 m. Summer keeps them at 2.5 to 9 m, and they winter in 2.5 to 9 m. Spring burbot concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 8 m. Fish it in after dark and midday and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a heavy jig + cut bait most summer days.

Spring lake whitefish on Horrmunden hold shallow, usually 2.5 to 9 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 2.5 to 9 m in summer, 2.5 to 9 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 8 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon.

Spring roach on Horrmunden hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. They move out to 1 to 5.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 2.5 to 9 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 1 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a tiny spoon or a micro jig.

The spring pattern is a shallow one: vendace in 2.5 to 9 m. The depth story barely changes: 2.5 to 9 m through summer, 2.5 to 9 m in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 8 m of water that rates prime for vendace in spring. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months. Summer baits: a micro jig fished vertically or a tiny flutter spoon gets it done.

Start shallow in spring: ide sit in 0.5 to 3.5 m that time of year. Warm water sends them out to 1 to 6 m; cold water stacks them in 2.5 to 9 m. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 4.5 m range, prime in fall. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite.
