Fishing Iglevatnet: what the data says
4-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 39 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. Here's the year, species by species, as the scoring engine sees it.
Traced from the shoreline, Iglevatnet runs 4 acres with 0.6 miles of edge. The shoreline is moderately structured (index 2.1) — enough points and pockets to pattern. 56% of the surface is littoral (under ~15 ft) — cover, weeds and forage water.
