4,000-acre lake in Sweden. The lake tops out around 108 m. This chart interpolates between a real shoreline and a known maximum depth. It will point you at likely water, but it is not a navigation product. Below is the species-by-species picture, pulled from the same data the map uses.
Ikesjaure mäter 1 616 hektar bakom 27.5 km strandlinje. Strandlinjen är måttligt strukturerad (index 1.9) — tillräckligt med uddar och vikar att fiska av. Cirka 17% av vattnet är ~5 m eller grundare, zonen där näringskedjan bor. Från ände till ände mäter vattnet ungefär 11.1 km, som bredast 4 km. Vattnet hör till Arjeplog kommun. Närmaste kartlagda vatten är Austre Viskisvatnet, 25.7 km åt sydväst.
Gratis interaktiv fiskekarta — Ikesjaure, Sverige: ungefärliga djupkurvor ner till 108 m (354 fot), och de bästa fiskeplatserna för gädda, abborre, öring med flera. Djupkartan är modellberäknad från sjöns verkliga strandlinje och största djup — använd den som vägledning, aldrig för navigation.
When the water first warms, northern pike slide up into 0.5 to 2.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 6 m game here, winter a 1.5 to 4.5 m one. Start at Shallow bay flat. It's a feeding flat holding about 2 m of water and rates prime come spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. Keep a bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Feeding flat (2.5 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Höst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Spring european perch on Ikesjaure hold shallow, usually 1 to 3.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 8.5 m in summer and finish the year down in 3.5 to 10 m. Put Sharp break first on the milk run — a drop-off near 7.5 m that grades prime for summer. The feeding windows run early morning. The summer box starts with a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern).
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (2 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommar | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Höst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Vinter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
In spring, brown trout run shallow here, mostly 1 to 7.5 m. Midsummer fish sit out in 7.5 to 18 m before dropping to 1.5 to 11 m for winter. Summer brown trout concentrate at Sharp break, a prime-rated drop-off around 7.5 m. Fish it in after dark and early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a spoon at the thermocline or a deep stickbait (night) most summer days.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 1 to 7.5 m | dawn & dusk | Shoreline point (6.5 m) | Stickbait off planer boards (shallow), Small spoon along mud lines |
| Sommar | 7.5 to 18 m | night & dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Spoon at the thermocline, Deep stickbait (night) |
| Höst | 1.5 to 9 m | dusk & dawn | Rock reef (1.5 m) | Jerkbait over gravel, Casting spoon |
| Vinter | 1.5 to 11 m | dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon, Small stickbait (slow) |
Start shallow in spring: lake whitefish sit in 4.5 to 14 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 12 to 27 m, and winter fish settle into 7.5 to 21 m. The spot to know is Rock reef, a rock pile in about 1.5 m of water that rates prime for lake whitefish in fall. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon until the fish tell you otherwise.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 4.5 to 14 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Sommar | 12 to 27 m | dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Höst | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Rock reef (1.5 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Vinter | 7.5 to 21 m | midday & dawn | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
When the water first warms, burbot slide up into 7.5 to 21 m. By summer they slide out to 15 to 37 m, and by winter most fish are in 4.5 to 18 m. If you only fish one area, make it Rock reef: a rock pile around 1.5 m that scores prime in winter. In summer the feeding windows fall in after dark and midday. Keep a heavy jig + cut bait rigged through the warm months.
| Säsong | Djup | Bästa tid | Börja vid | Beten |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vår | 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommar | 15 to 37 m | night & midday | open water | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Höst | 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Sharp break (7.5 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Vinter | 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Rock reef (1.5 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |

Anglers target northern pike, european perch, brown trout, lake whitefish, burbot on Ikesjaure. 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.
Sharp break is the top-rated area: a drop-off in about 24 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in summer. 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.
