Fishing Humaljärvi: what the data says
378-acre lake in Finland. The lake tops out around 33 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
On the chart, Humaljärvi draws 376 acres inside 8.6 miles of shoreline. A development index of 3.2 means a maze of bays and points: far more casting targets than a round bowl of the same size. Roughly 61% of the water is 15 ft or less, the band where the food chain lives.
