332.9-acre lake in Estonia. The lake tops out around 3.5 m. 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.
Kaardil katab Kaiu järv 134 hektarit, kaldajoont 5.8 km. Nõgu on lihtne (kaldaindeks 1.4) — peaaegu kauss, seega sügavusjooned loevad rohkem kui kallas. Kogu veekogu on madalam kui ~5 m — taimestik ja söödakala kaldast kaldani. Otsast otsani mõõdab veekogu umbes 1.6 km, kõige laiemas kohas 1.3 km. Lähim kaardistatud veekogu on Jõemõisa järve veekogum, 1.6 km loodesse.

Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. They don't go far with the seasons — 1 to 3.5 m covers summer, 1 to 3.5 m covers winter. Top water on the chart: Deep basin, a deep basin in the 3 m range, prime in fall. Fish it in early morning and you'll meet the bite. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.
