4-acre lake in Norway. The lake tops out around 12 m. The depth chart comes from published agency 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 kartet dekker Iglevatnet 2 hektar innenfor 1 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen er moderat strukturert (indeks 2.1). Omtrent 56% av flaten er grunnere enn ~5 m — der maten finnes. Vannet ligger i Bergen kommune. Nærmeste kartlagte vann er Tranevannet, 0 km mot nordøst.
Gratis interaktivt fiskekart — Iglevatnet, Norge: dybdekoter fra ekte dybdemålinger ned til 12 m (39 fot), og de beste fiskeplassene for ørret, abbor, gjedde med flere. Dybdekartet er modellberegnet fra innsjøens virkelige strandlinje og største dybde — bruk det som en veiledning, aldri til navigasjon.
Early season brown trout use the shallows, holding in 1 to 7.5 m. Summer is a 3.5 to 12 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 11 m one. The chart's best answer is Break off the point — drop-off, 5 m, prime for summer. Best bite is after dark and early morning. Tie on a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) 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.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Main-lake point (3 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommer | 3.5 to 12 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Høst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (3 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Spring puts european perch in skinny water — 1 to 3.5 m is the zone. Warm water sends them out to 2.5 to 8.5 m; cold water stacks them in 3.5 to 10 m. Deep basin is the standout, a deep basin at roughly 10 m, rated prime for fall european perch. Plan around early morning in the warm months. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) covers the summer program.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Høst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Spring puts northern pike in skinny water — 0.5 to 2.5 m is the zone. As the season builds they drop to 2.5 to 6 m, wintering in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Fall northern pike concentrate at Break off the point, a prime-rated drop-off around 5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage covers the summer program.
| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | open water | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Høst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Main-lake point (3 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
When the water first warms, lake whitefish slide up into 3.5 to 12 m. There's no big seasonal slide here — summer means 3.5 to 12 m, winter 3.5 to 12 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 10 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon rigged through the warm months.

| Sesong | Dybde | Beste tid | Start ved | Agn |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 3.5 to 12 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommer | 3.5 to 12 m chart-limited; documented 12 to 27 m | dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Høst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Break off the point (5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 12 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (10 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
When the water first warms, arctic char slide up into 1 to 4.5 m. By summer they slide out to 3.5 to 12 m, and by winter most fish are in 3 to 12 m. If you only fish one area, make it Deep basin: a deep basin around 10 m that scores prime in summer. In summer the feeding windows fall in early morning. Keep a jigging spoon vertical or a tube jig (smelt) rigged through the warm months.

3 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 10 m, is the deepest of them.

Iglevatnet is about 39 ft (12 m) deep at its deepest point. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled.
Iglevatnet er på det dypeste omtrent 12 meter (39 fot). Dybdene kommer fra virkelige målinger.
Anglers target brown trout, european perch, northern pike, lake whitefish, arctic char on Iglevatnet. 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 34 ft of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in summer. The interactive chart above rates every spot for each species and season.
For brown trout, the summer bite is best in after dark and early morning. Each species page section below lists the seasonal windows, and the map shows a live NOW badge when you're inside one.
Fishing on Iglevatnet is regulated by the Norwegian Environment Agency (fishing rules). Check the official Norway regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
