38,732-acre lake in Finland. The lake tops out around 10 m. The depth chart comes from Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) bathymetric survey data, so the contours are survey-derived rather than computer-modeled. The rest of this page walks each species through its year, using the map's own scoring.
Vesi piirtyy 19 014 hehtaarin laajuisena, rantaa 471.2 km. Rantaviiva on voimakkaasti rikkonainen (indeksi 9.6) — lahtia ja niemiä kaikkialla, mikä moninkertaistaa kalastettavan reunan. Noin 96% pinnasta on matalampaa kuin ~5 m — siellä ruokaketju elää. Päästä päähän vesi mittaa noin 33.6 km, leveimmillään 25.7 km. Vesi sijaitsee alueella Kuopio sub-region. Lähin kartoitettu vesi on Honkanen, 6.4 km koilliseen.

Come spring, look for european perch tight to the bank in 1 to 3.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 8.5 m, then a winter hold in 3.5 to 10 m. Start at Back-bay flat. It's a weed flat holding about 1.5 m of water and rates prime come spring. Prime time lands in early morning. A drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) is the honest summer answer here.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 3.5 m | midday & dawn | Back-bay flat (1.5 m) | Small jig + curly tail, Inline spinner #1-2 |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 8.5 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Drop-shot micro plastics, Small crankbait (perch pattern) |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon (small), Drop-shot on deep flats |
| Talvi | 3.5 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Tungsten jig + maggots, Small balance jig |
Early season northern pike use the shallows, holding in 0.5 to 2.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 2.5 to 6 m, then a winter hold in 1.5 to 4.5 m. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 0.5 m that grades prime for spring. 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.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 0.5 to 2.5 m | midday & dawn | Shallow bay flat (0.5 m) | #5 inline spinner, Spoon (red/white) |
| Kesä | 2.5 to 6 m | dawn & dusk | Break off the point (3 m) | Bucktail, Weedless spoon over cabbage |
| Syksy | 2 to 5.5 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3 m) | Big rubber (Bull Dawg style), Husky-style jerkbait |
| Talvi | 1.5 to 4.5 m | midday | Back-bay flat (1.5 m) | Tip-ups, Large jigging spoon |
Come spring, look for zander tight to the bank in 1 to 4.5 m. Expect a summer slide to 3 to 10 m, then a winter hold in 3 to 10 m. Start at Break off the point. It's a drop-off holding about 3 m of water and rates prime come fall. Prime time lands in the evening and early morning. A vertical softbait over humps or a deep crankbait is the honest summer answer here.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 1 to 4.5 m | dusk & dawn | Gravel shoal (1 m) | Softbait on jighead (10-12 cm), Shallow crankbait at dusk |
| Kesä | 3 to 10 m | dusk & dawn | Break off the point (3 m) | Vertical softbait over humps, Deep crankbait |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | dusk & night | Break off the point (3 m) | Big softbait (12-16 cm) slow-rolled, Jigging spoon |
| Talvi | 3 to 10 m | dusk & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Vertical jig / mormyshka with bait, Slow blade bait |
In spring, lake whitefish run shallow here, mostly 3 to 10 m. Summer keeps them at 3 to 10 m, and they winter in 3 to 10 m. Summer lake whitefish concentrate at Deep basin, a prime-rated deep basin around 6.5 m. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. You won't need more than a blade bait vertical or a small jigging spoon most summer days.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 3 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Break off the point (3 m) | Small jig + waxworm, Blade bait (small) |
| Kesä | 3 to 10 m | dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Blade bait vertical, Small jigging spoon |
| Syksy | 2.5 to 9 m | dusk | Gravel shoal (1 m) | Small spoon (gold), Jig + plastic larva |
| Talvi | 3 to 10 m | midday & dawn | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Jigging spoon + bead chain, Tungsten jig + waxie |
Spring burbot on Juurusvesi-Akonvesi hold shallow, usually 3 to 10 m. Depth-wise the year is flat: 3 to 10 m in summer, 2.5 to 10 m once it turns cold. Put Deep basin first on the milk run — a deep basin near 6.5 m that grades prime for spring. The feeding windows run after dark and midday. The summer box starts with a heavy jig + cut bait.
| Kausi | Syvyys | Paras aika | Aloita | Vieheet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kevät | 3 to 10 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Glow jigging spoon + cut bait, Rattle bait (dark) |
| Kesä | 3 to 10 m | night & midday | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Heavy jig + cut bait |
| Syksy | 3 to 10 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Glow spoon + minnow head, Blade bait (slow) |
| Talvi | 2.5 to 10 m | night & dusk | Deep basin (6.5 m) | Glow tungsten + cut bait, Rattle spoon + minnow head |

Anglers target european perch, northern pike, zander, lake whitefish, burbot on Juurusvesi-Akonvesi. 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.
Back-bay flat is the top-rated area: a weed flat in about 5 ft of water that rates prime for european perch in spring. Every other rated spot, per species and season, is on the map above.
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 Juurusvesi-Akonvesi is regulated by the Kalastusrajoitus.fi (official Finnish restriction service). Check the official Finland regulations for current license requirements, season dates, and size and bag limits — special regulations can apply to this specific water.
