Rating depth structure for northern pike.

45-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 4 m. The depth chart comes from SMHI bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
På kartan täcker Hylte sjö 18 hektar innanför 2.3 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.5) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Inget här går djupare än ~5 m: en enda stor grundzon med föda och skydd. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 1 km, som bredast 0.3 km. Vattnet hör till Hylte kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Stensjön, 3.2 km åt nordost.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Hylte sjö, Sverige: djupkurvor från riktiga djupmätningar ner till 4 m (13 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.
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 4 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 4 m. Put Break off the point first on the milk run — a drop-off near 1.5 m that grades prime for fall. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning and the evening. Tie on a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage and you're in the game.
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 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 1 to 4 m, then a winter hold in 1 to 4 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 4 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.

| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (4 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (4 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: brown trout in 0.5 to 4 m. The depth story barely changes: 1 to 4 m through summer, 0.5 to 4 m in winter. Top water on the chart: Break off the point, a drop-off in the 1.5 m range, prime in summer. Time it for after dark and early morning. Summer baits: a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) gets it done.

| Vår | 0.5 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 0.5 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (0.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 0.5 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (1.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
The spring pattern is a shallow one: common bream in 1 to 4 m. The depth story barely changes: 1 to 4 m through summer, 1 to 4 m in winter. The spot to know is Deep basin, a deep basin in about 4 m of water that rates prime for common bream in fall. Plan around early morning and the evening in the warm months.

| Vinter | 1 to 4 m chart-limited; documented 5.5 to 14 m | midday | Deep basin (4 m) |
In spring, roach run shallow here, mostly 0.5 to 3 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 1 to 4 m before dropping to 1 to 4 m for winter. Fall roach concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 1.5 m. Fish it in early morning and the evening and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a tiny spoon or a micro jig most summer days.

Spring tench on Hylte sjö hold shallow, usually 0.5 to 3 m. By summer they slide out to 1 to 3.5 m, and by winter most fish are in 1 to 4 m. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 4 m, prime for winter. Prime time lands in early morning and the evening.

Hylte sjö is about 13 ft (4 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.
Hylte sjö är som djupast cirka 4 meter (13 fot). Djupen kommer från verkliga lodningar.
Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, common bream, roach, tench on Hylte sjö. 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.
Deep basin is the top-rated area: a deep basin in about 13 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in fall. Scroll up to the map for the complete spot list by species and season.
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 Hylte sjö 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.
