578.8-acre lake in Brandenburg, Germany. The lake tops out around 10 m. The depth chart comes from published agency bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. What the data behind the map says about each species, season by season:
Das Gewässer zeichnet 234 Hektar mit 10.9 km Ufer. Die Uferlinie ist mäßig gegliedert (Index 2) — genug Landzungen und Buchten zum Abfischen. Etwa 77% der Fläche sind flacher als ~5 m — dort leben Kraut und Beutefische. Von Ende zu Ende misst das Gewässer rund 3.5 km, an der breitesten Stelle 1.8 km. Das nächste kartierte Gewässer ist Sacrower See, 1.6 km Richtung Nordosten.
Kostenlose interaktive Tiefenkarte — Jungfernsee, Deutschland: Tiefenlinien aus echten Vermessungsdaten bis 10 m (33 Fuß), dazu die besten Angelplätze für Flussbarsch, Hecht, Zander und mehr. Die Tiefenlinien basieren auf echten Vermessungsdaten (Seenvermessung des Landesamts für Umwelt Brandenburg). Als Orientierung nutzen, niemals zur Navigation.
Early season european perch use the shallows, holding in 1 to 3.5 m. Summer is a 2.5 to 8.5 m game here, winter a 3.5 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Back-bay flat — weed flat, 1 m, prime for spring. Best bite is early morning. Tie on a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) and you're in the game.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Winter | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Come spring, look for northern pike tight to the bank in 0.5 to 2.5 m. They move out to 2.5 to 6 m in summer and finish the year down in 1.5 to 4.5 m. If you only fish one area, make it Shallow bay flat: a weed flat around 0.5 m that scores prime in spring. Best bite is early morning and the evening. A bucktail or a weedless spoon over cabbage is the honest summer answer here.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Sommer | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Herbst | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Winter | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Early season zander use the shallows, holding in 1 to 4.5 m. Summer is a 3 to 10 m game here, winter a 3 to 10 m one. The chart's best answer is Deep basin — deep basin, 8.5 m, prime for winter. Best bite is the evening and early morning. Tie on a vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait 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.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Main-lake point (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 11 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 3.5 to 12 m | dusk & night | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Winter | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 6 to 12 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
Come spring, look for burbot tight to the bank in 3 to 10 m. Through summer count on 3 to 10 m; the winter hold is 2.5 to 10 m. Start at Deep basin. It's a deep basin holding about 8.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in after dark and midday. A heavy jig + cut bait is the honest summer answer here.
Depth note: when a documented seasonal range extends below this chart, the table shows the deepest mapped working water, not a verified holding depth.
| Saison | Tiefe | Beste Zeit | Einstieg | Köder |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Frühling | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 7.5 to 21 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Sommer | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 15 to 37 m | night & midday | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Herbst | 3 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 9 to 24 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Winter | 2.5 to 10 m chart-limited; documented 4.5 to 18 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (8.5 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |
5 pieces of structure are mapped here — Deep basin, around 8.5 m, is the deepest of them.
Season dates, license requirements, and size and bag limits for Germany waters are set by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei) — and special regulations can apply to Jungfernsee specifically, so confirm the current rules before you fish.

Jungfernsee is about 33 ft (10 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.
Jungfernsee ist an der tiefsten Stelle etwa 10 Meter (33 Fuß) tief. Die Tiefen stammen aus echten Vermessungen.
Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, burbot on Jungfernsee.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 3 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Open the map above to see every rated spot for each species and season.
For european perch, the summer bite is best in 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 Jungfernsee is regulated by the MLEUV Brandenburg (Angelfischerei). Check the official Germany regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
